Grants Pass Police arrested for impaired driving and more after he crashed his vehicle into some mailboxes in the north part of the city and fled last night.
The Police Department reports officers located the 63-year-old man involved in the incident on NW Morgan Lane and placed him into custody at 7:21 p.m. Tuesday.

They said he was pulled over, showed several signs of impairment, performed poorly in field sobriety tests and was deemed to be too inebriated to be driving a motor vehicle.
