A driver was arrested after he rammed his vehicle through a side entrance garage door at the Sacramento County Main Jail and got into a secured area of the jail, the sheriff's department said. Craig Joseph Dumas, 54, of Sacramento, crashed through the door about 3:30 a.m. on the east side of the jail on Sixth Street in downtown Sacramento. "The suspect was able to get all the way through the roll-up door and into the garage of the main jail," Sacramento County sheriff's spokesman Tony Turnbull said. Dumas got out of his vehicle once he made it inside and was quickly taken into custody, Turnbull said. The area where Dumas gained access to is a secure portion that's used by law enforcement officers when suspects are brought to the jail. Officers booked Dumas on charges felony vandalism and violation of probation. Sacramento police also add-booked him on a false report of a bomb, the sheriff's office said. He is being held in lieu of $1,161,000 bail. No additional details have been released. Stay with KCRA for updates.
