Police: Man who drank 36 beers crashes into Utah house

Updated

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Authorities say the driver of a pickup truck that crashed into the side of a house in Salt Lake City acknowledged drinking 36 beers and doing cocaine.

A probable cause statement says Bernabe Urcino-Saldago told police what he had consumed after he failed a field sobriety test early Monday.

The 39-year-old was arrested on suspicion of DUI, negligent collision and driving without a license.

No one was hurt in the early morning crash at a house on Salt Lake City's west side, near Rosewood Park.

The Associated Press sought comment on the arrest from Urcino-Saldago but could not verify whether he had a listed telephone number or an attorney.
