How to burn down a restaurant
So, we have this cute little 50's diner in town. Or we did, until some dumbass in a garbage truck decided not to look behind him as he was backing up. While backing up, he managed to hit a light pole so hard that it snapped, causing the powerlines to snap. These in turn fell on the roof of the restaurant, catching it on fire.

Oh my gosh! Well, I hope the truck driver's company will be footing the bill to rebuild? Did they catch the driver at the scene, or did he take-off? Hope nobody was hurt.

It's a mite difficult to take off in a garbage truck.
Although the visual of a garbage truck leading police on a high speed chase is giving me the giggles.

I've done that, well, in Grand Theft Auto, anyway.

That's going to be quite a big price for rebuilding. Even with insurance.
one of the restaurants that's been around for over 50 years... well it *had* been around that is. Until last year when it caught on fire after they closed for the night. They still haven't rebuilt and it's really been almost a year now.

Didn't one of the "Beverly Hills Cops" feature chase with a cement mixer?

I don't know about that, but I remember a couple of World's Wildest Police Videos featuring heavy machinery.
One of them was a bulldozer. And featured the hilarious exchange on the radio of:
"How do you stop a bulldozer?"
"Very carefully."
The other was a TANK. Fortunately, the guy never fired the cannon, and ended up getting stuck under an overpass when he tried to take out the support column by ramming it. That's about when the cops swarmed it and ended up shooting him.
