Bellevue Mormon Temple Rammed By Reckless Driver

BELLEVUE, WA - Bellevue police responded to the Seattle Washington Mormon Temple last week late at night after a driver rammed his car into the front gate.

According to police, the driver rammed the gates of the temple around 10 p.m. last Wednesday. When police arrived, the driver had already left.

Moments later, a man approached the officers driving his car in a "reckless manner." After police pulled the man over, he told them he had just been hired to work maintenance at the temple. He was upset when he arrived for work and found the gates locked, and that's why he was driving so crazily - but he would not admit to ramming the temple gates.

He was arrested on a reckless driving charge, according to police. The Mormon temple is located south of Robinswood Park along 148th Avenue Southeast.
