"Where did you get it [construction equipment] from," a deputy is heard asking Wealand on body camera video. "From a rental shop," Wealand responded. "You realized you were hitting some things back there," the deputy asked. "Why are we driving this thing down the sidewalk?" "I can take it down the road. It would be a lot quicker," Wealand said.

"Wealand would have caused more damage if he was not stopped and apprehended by deputies. Another win for ‘see something, say something, so a special thank you to the citizens who called us and helped prevent this dirtbag from continuing his dangerous path of destruction," Sheriff Rick Staly said in a statement.

Badass, let the man have a good time in peace
