A motorist was arrested after driving his Honda Civic around an Arizona airfield before smashing into the perimeter fence, police said Sunday.
Scottsdale Police Department received a call at 5:45 p.m. local time (8:35 p.m. ET) reporting a white car had crashed through one of the gates at Scottsdale Airport.
“The Honda Civic then attempted to leave the airport property by smashing through a fence line,” the department said in a statement.
