A man was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after he crashed his vehicle into a parked car in Santa Barbara Saturday afternoon.

A Toyota pickup truck driven by the suspect collided with a parked Mazda SUV on the 400 block of Arrellaga Street shortly after 4:00 p.m.

The vehicle flipped and the driver was trapped in the vehicle.
