TERREBONNE, OR -- A Bend man faces several charges after crashing into a pond in Terrebonne, Monday afternoon. 

Prior to the crash, multiple people reported a silver SUV traveling recklessly on Highway 97. The car was northbound when witnesses say it almost struck other vehicles and was unable to maintain its own lane. A deputy attempted to pull the SUV over, but lost sight of it as it continued into Terrebonne.

Just after 4 p.m. Monday, deputies were dispatched to a crash on Wilcox Avenue, near Smith Rock. A silver SUV was reportedly in a pond after flipping over during a crash. The person who called 911 said the vehicle was not fully submerged but the driver could not get out on his own. Arriving deputies helped the man out of the water, and he was checked at St. Charles Redmond as a precaution. 

The driver, identified as 34-year-old Jacob Lecense, is accused of Driving Under the Influence, Reckless Driving and Criminal Mischief. 

Sergeant Jason Wall says a deputy working from a Sheriff's office special task force located the speeding vehicle. "So the Community Action Target Team is a group of deputies here that are not in the call rotation. We call them our CATT team obviously for short and they are led by a sergeant and we have three current deputies. 
Wall tells KBND News this is exactly the type of call the Community Action Target Team is for. "They are specifically designed to conduct focused enforcement on specific areas, specific crimes, specific violations." He adds Central Oregon's busy highwaysfull of construction zones and tourists make CATT necessary. "When you have a traffic complaint of this magnitude traveling into those areas, we get very concerned. And so that's why we have the Community Action Target Team."
