Cretton, 49, of 29 Dianne Drive near Belleville, was arrested and charged with felony aggravated driving under the influence after neighbors reported he was driving the lawnmower down Dianne Drive about 9 p.m. Friday. St. Clair County Sheriffs deputies had received several complaints in the past about Cretton driving his mower while drunk but were never able to catch him driving it.
