Police in Creston say a man from Nebraska intentionally slammed his SUV into a light pole to stop his vehicle, after the accelerator stuck. 21-year old Braulio Zamotio, of Omaha, was driving a 2006 Lincoln Navigator northbound in the parking lot of the Creston Family Restaurant at around 7:30 this (Tuesday) morning, when the accelerator stuck.

Zamotio hit the light pole so his SUV wouldn’t run out onto Highway 34. No injuries were reported. Damage to the SUV was estimated at $6,000. The parking lot light sustained $3,000 damage. No citations were issued.
