Cody Mallett allegedly crashed his vehicle into the wall after passing out. Marijuana and open alcohol containers were found in the vehicle. (Kelly Codner\/Courtesy photo)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>A man suspected of driving into the brick wall at Shiloh\u2019s Steakhouse, 5 S. Veach St., damaging the wall and nearly hitting bystanders, was given a \u201cshort setover\u201d in Montezuma County Court on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>Cody Mallett was set to have a plea hearing in front of county Judge Ian MacLaren, but the plea was moved to Tuesday, Feb. 18 at 1:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>Mallett\u2019s attorney explained that he wanted to meet with Mallett to go over paperwork before they moved forward with the plea, noting the pending DUI in the case.<\/p>\n<p>The crash at Shiloh\u2019s occurred on May 9. According to police reports, Mallett, who is from Arizona, was driving west in the 2000 block of East Main Street when he crashed into the driver\u2019s side of a Chevy Silverado. Upon hitting the Chevy, Mallett lost control of the vehicle and went \u201cairborne\u201d through the LivWell Marijuana Dispensary parking lot, jumped the dispensary\u2019s driveway and continued driving through the Shiloh\u2019s parking lot.<\/p>\n<p>As he entered the parking lot, he hit the Shiloh\u2019s access ramp and went airborne again, barely missing bystanders. He crashed into three vehicles in the parking lot before hitting the brick retaining wall on the west side of Shiloh\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>Mallett told police that he had passed out while driving and that he didn\u2019t wake up until he had \u201ccollided with the wall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After the crash, open marijuana and open alcohol containers were found in the vehicle. He was cited with driving under the influence of drugs, reckless driving, open alcohol containers and open marijuana container inside a motor vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>Construction to repair the wall started on Oct. 21, about five months after the crash. The sidewalk and turn lane on northbound Sligo Street were closed during construction.<\/p>\n<p>The wall\u2019s construction was completed last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mallett allegedly drove into the brick wall behind Shiloh\u2019s in May <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13992,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[21,168,28,60,29],"naviga_topic":[],"class_list":["post-23697","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-cortez","tag-crime","tag-headlines","tag-montezuma-county","tag-newsletter"],"acf":[],"author_name":"dh_admin","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23697","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23697"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23697\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":78222,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23697\/revisions\/78222"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13992"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23697"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23697"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23697"},{"taxonomy":"naviga_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/naviga_topic?post=23697"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
