DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Daytona Beach police are looking for a driver who smashed through a traffic arm and jumped a drawbridge as it opened.

According to police, the also driver hit another traffic arm on the other side of the bridge.

Police say the two traffic arms had to be replaced.

WESH-TV and WSVN-TV both report that police believe they have identified the driver, who will likely face charges.
