Cables dangling from a construction crane over westbound I-10 caused four crashes early Saturday morning. State Trooper Henry Perez says 37-year-old Matthew Vincent of Vinton decided to hop into the idle crane in the median near Highway 108, about eight miles from the Texas state line, and moved the cables over the westbound lanes.

Cut 7 (12) “…on an Interstate.”

Investigators were led to Vincent after finding the key fob to his disabled pickup truck inside the crane.
