Use of Golf Carts as Bumper Cars Leads to Iowa Man’s Arrest

Authorities in central Iowa have arrested a 20-year-old man for intentionally crashing golf carts during an April visit to a Waterloo golf course.

Court records show Cody Allan Lamprecht of Waterloo was arrested June 3 for second-degree criminal mischief and reckless driving.

Lamprecht and another man allegedly rented golf carts from the Irv Warren Golf Course on April 25, then rammed the vehicles into each other. The damage to the carts is estimated at $3,000.

Documents say the two allegedly drove the carts into places they weren’t allowed, including wooded areas. Tire marks were also left on the No. 5 green.

Records say witnesses identified Lamprecht from a photo lineup.
