I’ve spent the better part of my career here at Sac Rag HQ trying to bring awareness to one of our most pressing local issues. Arena? Blah. Crime? Who cares!
Nay, Ragfolk. It’s the attraction of our motor vehicles to the front doors of our local buildings. It’s epidemic. And, even when I haven’t been making my weekly announcements about the most recent crash, many of you have been sending me your stories and tips of the most recent building-car encounter. We’re becoming aware and I will say this, Sacramento: good on ya. You’ve been vigilant on my behalf, and I really think we’re in a car careening down a road towards a building called “Something Special”. Hit the gas, because here’s another one…
The latest crash is topping the headlines. It’s got it all. A truck. Two banks. A fire. Meth. Starbucks.Â
A man allegedly rammed his truck into the side of a Wells Fargo bank in Roseville, then drove it to another Roseville Wells Fargo branch, where he set it on fire, say Roseville Police…
Police say the man then walked across the parking lot to a Starbucks, where he smoked a cigarette.
 And, no one other than CBS13.com really knows how to get to what’s important to the story:
Police say that the fire damaged the interior of the truck and that it was started with an accelerant. A gas can was found nearby.
No, not the interior of the truck! OH THE HUMANITY.

I think building ramming has been rampant in the valley for decades. Glad the criminals keep the flow going.
Good use of “good on ya’.” If I had read this article first, I would have saved mine for later. Steve Irwin’s death has just brought out the Aussie in everyone.
