Man was in stolen vehicle and had numerous shaved keys, police say
A driver crashed a stolen vehicle early this morning, knocking out power in the vicinity of Indiana Avenue and Monroe Street and leading to the arrest of a 40-year-old man.
Spokane police arrested the driver after a chase in which the car crashed into a power pole.
The outage affected a small area around the intersection and was expected to be restored by 10:15 a.m., according to Avista Utilities. The traffic light is working.
Aaron J. Harding was booked into Spokane County Jail for vehicle theft and eluding a police officer following the 2:30 a.m. incident. He fled on foot after the crash but was caught by officers.
He had a large number of shaved keys in his possession when he was arrested, police said. Shaved keys often can be used to steal vehicles.
