A single-car accident that caused a major power outage in east Brentwood on Aug. 23 resulted in a DUI charge and arrest of a Brentwood man.

Robert Cleaves, 35, 108 Autumn Oaks Court, was injured after he lost control of his 2007 Nissan Pathfinder travelling east on Concord Road and crashed into a telephone pole which resulted in damage to lines and other utility poles in the area.
