Pima County Sheriff posted some photos on Facebook about a peculiar incidence of car versus cactus. Somehow, the driver of this car managed to impale his vehicle with a large saguaro cactus. As you can imagine, alcohol was involved.
On July 10, 2019, at approximately 9:20am, deputies responded to the area of 1st Avenue and Agave Place reference a vehicle that crossed the median, and struck a saguaro cactus. Once on scene they located the vehicle with a large section of cactus through the windshield. The driver, who appeared disoriented, sustained minor injuries, and was later detained after deputies observed possible signs and symptoms associated with impairment.
Saguaros are protected in Arizona. I have read about some home owners having to pay thousands to carefully remove and replant these on their property. I suspect there is more than just a DUI fine coming to the fella who knocked down the cactus.
