DALLAS, TX. (FOX4) – A man was arrested Wednesday morning after crashing a truck into the side of the FOX4 building in downtown Dallas.

The man, after repeatedly crashing his vehicle into a side of the building with floor to ceiling windows, got out of his vehicle and began ranting.

FOX4 photojournalists were able to film him placing numerous boxes next to a side door filled with stacks of paper. The papers were also strewn across the sidewalk and street adjacent to the building.

The man also left behind a suspicious bag. Dallas police were investigating to ensure there was nothing dangerous inside the bag.

Most of the personnel inside the building were evacuated by police, while a handful of employees remained in a secure part of the building to keep the station on air during GoodDay.
