Drunk Driver Arrested For Nighttime Property Damage
Jun 28th, 2010 by RichmondJ
A driver suspected of driving under the influence (DUI) has now been arrested in conjunction with a series of collisions that caused damage to several buildings in the El Cajon area. San Diego police report that the driver also hit two or more vehicles.
Just after midnight, the driver was advancing down El Cajon Boulevard in a Budget Rental truck when he seems to have began driving wildly. He hit at least two vehicles, one of which was a parked white Mitsubishi Montero. That vehicle sustained heavy damage from the crash, including a smashed window, flat tire, and broken tail light.
The truck continued crashing into other fixtures in its path. After climing the sidewalk, the truck then downed a palm tree and then pylon. It then ran into The Greek Corner resteraunt, shattering a window and demolishing the front of the structure and roof.
Other fixtures damaged by the drunk driver included several other trees, plants, a pay phone, and at least one other building, owned by Progress Management.
The driver’s name was never released. A passenger was also present, but was released after being questioned. Fortunately, no injuries took place.
