Bizarre moment furious digger driver smashes his way into new Travelodge hotel in rampage ‘over a £600 unpaid wage bill’ – on the day builders had finished their work
This is the bizarre moment a digger driver smashes into a Travelodge in a furious rampage over an alleged £600 unpaid wage bill – on the same day builders had finished working on it.
Footage shows the orange digger ploughing into the hotel at Liverpool Innovation Park on Edge Lane shortly before 3pm today.
After getting up the steps leading to the entrance, the digger tears through the entrance and white parts of the doorway can be seen falling to the ground.
A few seconds later, the digger rolls back out of the entrance and down the steps but the determined operator heads back up and through the front door
The arm of the digger is well inside the reception and the driver proceeds to crash into walls and the front desk.
A number of workers can be seen cheering on the driver while videoing the incident on their phones – with others appearing to try to stop him.
One person can be heard shouting on the footage, saying: ‘That’s what happens when people don’t pay your wages, mate.
‘You just don’t s**t on the job. He’s a sick man, mate. Right through the building.’
A source told the Sun: ‘Nobody could believe their eyes. The man just went crazy.
