Driver Arrested for DUI Following Crash


A 53-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after crashing his vehicle into a supermarket in Burbank.

On April 13, 2026, at about 9:45 p.m., Burbank Police officers responded to a report of a vehicle that had crashed into a grocery store in the 10900 block of Sherman Way.

Upon arrival, officers discovered that a vehicle had driven through the business's front entrance, causing significant structural damage. The driver, identified as Ruben Montoya, exited the vehicle and began acting erratically inside the store, at one point grabbing items and behaving aggressively toward employees.

Officers located Montoya inside the store and issued commands for him to comply. He refused and attempted to flee while holding glass bottles. A brief struggle ensued, but officers were able to take him into custody safely. No officers or bystanders were injured during the incident.

Montoya was arrested on multiple charges, including driving under the influence of a drug and resisting or obstructing a peace officer.  Formal charges are pending review by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
