Toronto police say a man has been arrested after a bulldozer smashed into an east-end Toronto house on Saturday afternoon.
Police said they received a call at 12:15 p.m. about an incident in the area of Danforth and Macey avenues.
When officers arrived on the scene, they located a large hole in the wall of a home.
Investigators initially said witnesses indicated two suspects were seen fleeing the scene in a bulldozer.
The bulldozer and one driver have since been located.
Police said it is believed the bulldozer was stolen from a construction site and the male driver was intoxicated at the time of the incident.
He has since been arrested and taken to hospital with minor injuries.
It is unclear if police are still searching for a second suspect.
Police said a portion of the home collapsed as a result of the damage.
It is believed the home was part of a Habitat for Humanity project.
