Video: Man testing out new tires sends truck flying into gas station
A Michigan man decided to test out his new tires by speeding around some gas pumps and lost control, slamming his pickup fully into a gas station.

ORTONVILLE, Mich. (KABC) -- Surveillance video from a Michigan gas station shows a speeding truck ram right through the front doors, with people standing just feet away.

Inside the store, the wreck left a complete mess. Video shows the driver, later identified as William Edmonds, 24, take a spill as he rips off his license plate.

He then walks out like nothing happened.

Hours later, police arrested him at home.

An employee says he is a regular at the gas station.

Police say he told them he just got new tires and wanted to speed around the pumps when he lost control.
