An Oregon teen has been arrested after he posted a message on Facebook after a night of partying on New Year's Eve, admitting that he had been driving drunk and apologizing for hitting someone's car during his booze-fueled escapade.



Jacob Cox-Brown, 18, used the social media website to inform his friends that he had been 'Drivin drunk ... classic ;) but to whoever's vehicle i hit i am sorry. :P.'



One of his friends saw the post and called police on New Year's Day, just as officers were in the midst of investigating a hit and run that had damaged two vehicles.
