The homeowner, Javier Gonzalez, said he sent the video to Portland police.

Police said they’re aware of what happened, but no one involved in the incident contacted them. The video has been distributed to officers.

Gonzalez said he checked the video when he came home to find his rose bushes and a utility box outside his home damaged, and tire tracks through nearby Wilkes City Park.

Gonzalez is thankful no one was in the park at the time.

"Any other day, any other time of the year, that could have been a really horrifying accident," Gonzalez said.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Portland police.
