The fire lane will get you every single time…..<br />
On January 25th, while on routine patrol, Sergeant Collins located a vehicle parked<br />
in a fire lane at a local retail outlet. Upon making contact with the driver, Collins<br />
discovered the man provided a fictitious name because he had a revoked driver’s<br />
license. A record’s check revealed the suspect had a history <strong>of</strong> providing false information<br />
to police <strong>of</strong>ficers and was arrested for driving after revocation on previous<br />
occasions. The man was jailed for providing false information to police, and driving<br />
after cancellation.<br />

On January 25th, HealthEast Paramedics called 911 to report a vehicle<br />
parked in the middle <strong>of</strong> Galaxie Avenue. They reported seeing an adult<br />
male “slumped over” in the vehicle. Officers arrived and made contact with<br />
the driver. Immediately, they could smell an alcoholic odor coming from<br />
inside the vehicle and could see a bottle <strong>of</strong> whiskey perched on the seat<br />
next to the suspect. The man admitted to driving his vehicle and consuming<br />
alcohol. He was taken into custody and arrested for DUI, liquor possession<br />
by persons under the age <strong>of</strong> 21, open bottle, driving after revocation, and<br />
for two outstanding arrest warrants. A record’s check also confirmed two prior DUI’s in 2011. He<br />
had an initial blood alcohol level <strong>of</strong> .159.<br />
“This was stupid, I did it”….<br />

suspect on 35E and initiated a traffic stop. He made contact with the suspect who immediately<br />
stated, “This was stupid, I did it.” The suspect was arrested and taken into custody, and a record’s<br />
check confirmed he was driving without a valid driver’s license. The suspect was cited for<br />
misdemeanor theft, driving after suspension, no pro<strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong> insurance and trespassing.<br />
