***  WATCH ***  MAN ARRESTED FOR DRUNK DRIVING AFTER CRASHING INTO LIGHT POLE, SMALL TREE, PARKED CAR

HYANNIS, MASSACHUSETTS – [HN VIDEO NOTES] – At around 3:20 a.m. this morning, Barnstable Police patrol officers and Hyannis Firefighters responded to Sea Street near the intersection with Angell Road for single vehicle crash with injuries. Upon arrival, first responders found a heavily damaged two-door Dodge sedan crashed into a parked vehicle. It appears as though the Dodge had left the roadway, run over a small tree, taken out a street light pole, crossed the sidewalk, drove through a picket fence, and then crashed into a parked vehicle, with the light pole still embedded in its front end as it traveled. The power to several streetlights on Sea Street appeared to have been knocked out by the crash. The driver was standing outside of the wreckage when HN arrived on scene. He had a minor head laceration, was evaluated by Hyannis Rescue and eventually refused further medical care. The driver then appeared unsteady as he attempted field sobriety tests. He was then placed under arrest for Operating Under the Influence. The Dodge was registered out of New Mexico, and little is known about the driver at the time of this report. HN will hopefully have more details in the coming days. Check back for updates… * The initial details contained in the above report are based on police radio transmissions and information on scene.
