The driver of the SUV who crashed into the building and was arrested at the scene was John Hargreaves (34). It is known that he played the rock band Guns N' Roses' song "Welcome to the Jungle" in the vehicle.

In the initial part of the video released by the police, Hargreaves' vehicle passes through the parking lot in front of the police station and then charges toward the main entrance. The vehicle breaks through the door and wall, hitting various furniture such as tables and chairs inside before finally coming to a stop.

Police officers at the scene said to the media, "We heard the screeching sound of tires," and "Suddenly, a car had broken through the police station wall and was inside."

Two officers inside the office were startled by the sudden commotion and came outside, and Hargreaves also got out of the car. Then he exhibited strange behavior. As soon as he opened the car door and stepped out, he raised both arms high into the sky and cheered. Even as the police approached him, he maintained the cheering pose without flinching.

Local prosecutor Jim Piper said, "Hargreaves got out of the vehicle after the accident and raised his arms as if commemorating the event," suggesting the possibility that the accident was intentional.

The police believe that Hargreaves planned the crime out of dissatisfaction with the handling of a case in which a woman, identified as A, had reported to the police that she had hypnotized him a year ago.

It is also known that Hargreaves had broken into the woman's garage before crashing into the police station.

Hargreaves, who was arrested at the scene, is currently detained on first-degree terrorism charges. He is also facing charges of theft, assault, and illegal possession of weapons. Additionally, it was confirmed that he had been previously punished two years ago for stalking and trespassing. Prosecutor Piper explained that Hargreaves could face a maximum life sentence in court.
