- WENATCHEE -- A 29-year-old
Wenatchee man told police a pterodactyl caused him to drive his car into
a light pole about 11:30 p.m. Thursday.
-
- Wenatchee police cited the man with first-degree negligent
driving. A breathalyzer test showed "a minimal amount of alcohol,"
said Wenatchee police Sgt. Cherie Smith.
-
- Witnesses told police the man was northbound on Wenatchee
Avenue and drifted into a southbound lane for less than a block. Oncoming
traffic stopped and waited for the man to pass, Smith said.
-
- He then totaled his car on a light pole, Smith said.
-
- When police asked the man what caused the accident, his
one-word answer was "pterodactyl," Smith said. A pterodactyl
was a giant winged reptile that lived more than 65 million years ago....
