MOSES LAKE — Authorities say a man drove into a security gate at the Moses Lake police parking lot, then asked to be jailed.

Officers in the building heard the crash, went outside and saw 54-year-old Allen J. Pavese of Moses Lake backing away in a 1977 Chevrolet pickup.

Only the gate was damaged.

Pavese was arrested for investigation of first-degree malicious mischief, driving under the influence of alcohol and hit-and-run with property damage.

Capt. Dave Ruffin told the Columbia Basin Herald, "He wanted to go to jail. He said he did it on purpose."'
