The driver, later identified as 30-year-old Jordan Mattingly, drove his vehicle all the way to a nearby dealership, where he attempted to SELL his SUV, damaged tire and all.

Dealership employees noted that Mattingly appeared “super drunk.”   They also said he he had swelling and scratches as if he had just been in a crash.

According to 14 News, Mattingly is facing several charges.

He is also the son of the manager for the Miami Marlins and former professional baseball player, Don Mattingly.
