   DURHAM, N.C.  — Dog isn't this man's best friend.

   Josue Herrios-Coronilla, 18, drove his black Camaro on the wrong side of the road this week and crashed into the yard of man who owns four dogs, police said.

   Police found crushed bushes, a damaged fence, an inoperable car — and a fresh shoe print in a pile of dog feces.

   Following an odoriferous trail down the street, Sgt. Dale Gunter noticed a white van driving toward him. When he asked the passenger to step out, he noticed the smell of alcohol on the man's breath and evidence all over his shoes.

   Herrios-Coronilla was charged with driving while impaired and drinking underage and released on $1,500 bail. He could not immediately be reached for comment.
