Fessing' up would have been better

   First rule of holes: When you’re in one, quit digging.

   Roberto Pombrol, 45, of Vero Beach didn’t heed that bit of accepted wisdom when he crashed his company truck through a privacy fence and into a swimming pool. When police arrived, the soaking-wet Pombrol said he wanted to file a stolen vehicle report and had chased the truck on foot to the scene of the crash.

   However, he recanted when two witnesses said Pombrol was the only person near the vehicle after the crash and one motorist said the vehicle was going about 75 mph just before the crash, TCPalm reports.

   So Pombrol was charged with filing a false police report in addition to careless driving.
