Two men are in custody after attempting to rob a food truck parked in an East Vancouver laneway Sunday morning.

The Vancouver Police Department responded to a report of someone using a grinding tool to break into the truck just after 1:00 a.m. near East 10th Avenue and Main Street.

Officers were getting into position to arrest the suspect, when he was picked up in a minivan by a second man and the pair took off, according to VPD spokesperson Const. Jason Doucette.
