(WXYZ) — Wyandotte police say a man was arrested after drinking and driving and crashing his car into a house on Sunday night.

According to police, the suspect's girlfriend tried to stop him from driving away due to his high level of intoxication, but he refused and took off.

Police say he lost control and crashed into a home, but then fled the accident scene before losing control once again and slamming into an unoccupied parked car.

Then, police say he drove the car from the scene, badly damaged, but was located in a nearby alley and arrested.

The damage to the home was around $60,000, police say.

He was charged with four different offenses and given a $25,000 cash bond.
