LONGMONT, Colo. (AP) -- A police commander in Colorado says it wasn't hard finding a Tennessee semitrailer driver suspected of plowing through yards in an upscale neighborhood, demolishing a fence, and knocking down a lamppost and street sign.

Longmont Police Cmdr. Tim Lewis says there were trees dangling from his rig.

David Kent of Lebanon, Tenn., was arrested late Saturday on suspicion of driving under the influence and 17 counts of hit and run.

Police say a tree was uprooted, at least eight parked vehicles were scratched, and several cars also were hit.

It was unclear if Kent had a lawyer who could comment on his behalf.
