Man Says He's a Teacher, is Arrested for Third OWI

Although he admitted to being intoxicated, he said he wasn't so drunk he couldn't drive safely. On the ride back to the station, he also admitted he had switched out the license plates on his car with those for another one.

Alcohol acts like a truth serum for some, and Fox Point police saw this first-hand when they caught up with this man who not only admitted to being drunk, but also to switching out the license plates on his car.  According to the report: A Fox Point officer was traveling in the 8700 block of North Port Washington Road just before 3 a.m. Thursday when he noticed a car heading southbound that crossed the center line three times, then nearly left the road in the 7900 block of North Santa Monica Boulevard.

Police pulled the car over in the 7400 block of North Lake Drive. …
