On Monday afternoon just after 3 PM, a gray Chevrolet Malibu crashed into a power pole on Bellevue Avenue, just west of Moorland Avenue, causing power to be lost in the area. Officers arrived and approached the driver, 23-year-old Alyssa Metzger who was near the car. She provided a name belonging to another person and was determined to be under the influence of alcohol. Metzger was arrested for DUI, felony false impersonation, and obstructing or resisting arrest.
