Drunk Driver Caught at Open Pantry

The store clerk reported the 26-year-old woman because she was slurring her speech.

A 26-year-old woman was cited for drunken driving after slurring her speech at Open Pantry early Saturday morning.

The clerk at Open Pantry called dispatch at 2:06 a.m. Saturday to report the woman slurred her speech while in the store, and was headed northbound on Interstate 43 from Brown Deer Road. The vehicle later returned to the gas station, where police officers caught up to the vehicle.

According to a Bayside police report, a Bayside squad car blocked the front of the vehicle from driving anywhere. Upon seeing the officer, the female in the driver's seat put the car into gear, but the officer on scene told her to turn the engine off. After mixed results on field sobriety tests, an Intoximeter test eventually revealed her blood alcohol content was 0.19.
