An American man was arrested after crashing into more than a dozen vehicles, running over five people and sending food cars careening out of control Monday near the busiest land border crossing between the U.S. and Mexico, Mexican police said.
The Tijuana Secretary of Public Security said in a Facebook post the man, who has not been identified, allegedly threatened a Mexican citizen with a knife on a roadway near the San Ysidro Port of Entry.
When police arrived, the man sped away in a black Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck towards the border crossing.
As the man fled, police said he rammed 17 other vehicles, knocked over 14 vendor carts and ran over five people.
