Man drives car into local physician's office

On Friday, local station WCCO reported that a man who drove his truck into a university building was actually aiming for a Minneapolis FBI building.

According to WCCO, the driver, James Kromer, 36, "told police he was angry about a "computer type device" that was located inside the building and was sending signals to his head and read his thoughts, according to the complaint."

The Star Tribune also covered the story, reporting Kromer smashed his 1996 Dodge pickup truck into the three-story glass atrium of a building belonging to Physicians & Surgeons Capital Corp. at 1100 Washington Av. S. about 6 p.m. Thursday.

The damage to the building reportedly exceeds $20,000.

According to the Star Tribune, Kromer has a history of drug and drinking-related criminal offenses, and his mental health is currently being evaluated.
