Officers arrived on the scene and searched for the vehicle and any damage. EPD found a vehicle with extensive front damage that matched the vehicle description provided by the complainant.

When officers told him they had video footage of the incident, he admitted he and two friends had been in the vehicle that evening, but said that he was in the passenger seat asleep and had woken up when they had hit the pole. Upon further questioning, the student admitted he was awake in the vehicle at the time of the incident.
