FINNEY COUNTY —"That’s one way to make an entrance, just maybe not the best way, Garden City Police wrote on social media. Officers were at the scene of a traffic incident involving a car colliding with the entryway of an apartment complex this morning.
At 8:30 a.m. May 12, police responded the Villa North Apartments, 605 Labrador Boulevard in Garden City. First responders ound a Saturn Vue up on the steps of the apartment complex.
Through the investigation, officers learned that the driver had arrived at the complex and was trying to park.
