Keizer man arrested in DUII crash identified, has ICE hold
The man who allegedly caused a power outage for more than 1,000 Pacific Power users after he crashed into a light pole south of Aumsville Saturday night has been identified by the Marion County Sheriff’s Office.
Juan Carlos Bravo-Fernandez, 24, of Keizer, was arrested on DUII charges and criminal mischief. His bail on those charges was set at $15,000 but because he has an ICE hold, he will not be released on bail, said Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Don Thomson.
Bravo-Fernandez is scheduled to appear in Marion County Court at 3 p.m. today.
The Sheriff’s Office received a report about the crash at Shaff and West Stayton roads SE just before 11 p.m. Saturday.
Officials said the driver hit a sign giving directions to Aumsville and Stayton before crashing into the power pole.
Most customers reportedly had their power back by 8:30 a.m. Sunday, and the rest were restored a few hours later.
