Eyewitnesses said the driver appeared intoxicated during the incident and may have fallen asleep while driving or lost control of the vehicle.

Dressed in a navy blue jacket, the driver is seen making calls and struggling to exit the vehicle, which was trapped between shelves. 

Reports indicate no one was hurt during the incident that happened a few hours before the start of the curfew at 10:00 pm.
