Maryland: Man accused of ramming car into City Hall arrested A Maryland city's mayor says police arrested a "disgruntled resident" accused of intentionally ramming his car into City Hall, damaging the building

TANEYTOWN, Md. -- Police in a Maryland city arrested a "disgruntled resident" accused of intentionally ramming his car into City Hall and damaging the building, the city's mayor said Sunday.

The driver didn't injure the lone Taneytown city employee who was in the building on Friday evening when the car plowed into City Hall, Mayor Bradley Wantz said.

Police said witnesses saw the car repeatedly strike the building. Wantz said during a telephone interview that the man was angry because his water service had been shut off for failing to pay his bill.

"This was his response to that," the mayor added.

The mayor says City Hall will remain closed through Tuesday.

Wantz denounced what happened.

"It is appalling that someone would be willing to endanger the lives of innocent people out of frustration with the city government," he said in a statement posted on his Twitter account.
