    TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Surveillance video shows the terrifying moment a driver crashed their truck into a bar and restaurant at an Elks Lodge in Apache Junction, Arizona, over the weekend.

    On Sept. 7, the Apache Junction Police Department arrested 73-year-old Thomas Edward Kain on 12 counts of aggravated assault, 17 counts of endangerment, and DUI, according to Storyful.

    “Ten individuals were transported to multiple hospitals by ambulance, while 15 others received treatment on-site for minor injuries. At least five additional individuals drove themselves to local hospitals for further medical evaluation,” police said. “Currently, one person remains in critical but stable condition, with ongoing improvements to their health,” police added.

    Kain was leaving the lodge when he crashed his vehicle, police said.

    “This tragic event highlights the serious dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol,” the police department said. “We are fortunate that, despite the severity of this incident, no lives were lost. However, the outcome could have been far worse.”
