Golfer arrested after crashing driver into player’s head in shocking video

A drunken golfer was arrested earlier this month after crashing a driver into another player’s head in a stunning scene.

The disastrous event, caught on video, took place at Burnaby Mountain Golf Course in British Columbia, Canada, on October 12, when a verbal argument turned into a nasty attack as both golfers shouted back and forth; with one saying “You hit f–king at me.”

One golfer wearing a white hat and dark-colored shirt walked toward the other, who was wearing a pink shirt, before raising his right arm holding a driver and nailing his opponent in the head with a thud.

“What’s wrong with you?!” one of the golfers on the course can be heard saying in the video. “Call the fucking cops!”

The cops said Burnabynow that the 43-year-old suspect was intoxicated and arrested at the scene without incident.

The driver’s head flew off as others looked on in horror, although the golfer wearing the pink collared shirt appeared to get up under his own power but was clearly injured by the blow to the skull.

The suspect now faces possible assault, including with a weapon, and has been released pending his court date.

“This is the second time Burnaby officers have encountered a fight on a golf course since June,” said Cpl. Mike Kalanj told Burnabynow. “It is unacceptable to engage in a physical altercation like this in a recreational establishment. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries. »

Kalanj was referring a nasty fight that broke out at Riverway Golf Course in June.
