A 21-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence Sunday afternoon after rolling his Saturn coupe at Florida Road (County Road 240) and Ball Lane.

No one was injured in the incident, but about seven blocks of internet service from Spectrum was interrupted because a utility box was taken out by the crash.

The crash also took out a utility box for CenturyLink.

Colorado State Patrol Trooper Josh Lewis said Christian Simons, 21, of Durango, was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, driving without a valid license, careless driving, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

The rollover also took out the stop sign at Ball Lane.

The crash temporarily knocked out Spectrum internet service on Sunday along Florida Road from Timberline Drive to Richard Drive.
