SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CA — A man was taken into custody for suspected DUI early Saturday after a two-vehicle collision on California Highway 125 in La Mesa, according to OnScene.TV.

The incident occurred on the northbound lanes just south of Lemon Avenue. It was first reported by OnScene.TV at 1:44 a.m.

An early investigation by the California Highway Patrol shows the man was driving a Scion TC northbound when his car sideswiped a Honda Civic. The impact of the crash sheared off the door of the Honda, while sending the Scion onto its side.

No injuries were reported in the crash.

After conducting field sobriety tests and a breathalyzer test on the driver of the Scion, CHP officers determined he was impaired. He was arrested at the scene.

No further information has been released at this time.
