At least that was the excuse a young guy gave police after crashing his car into a utility pole.
Police in Winona, Minnesota, report 18-year-old Michael Allen Butler called about four hours after the accident to confess.
Witnesses saw a man leaving the area walking a beagle.
Butler told police he crashed after his dog started "throwing up all over him."
