Asleep at the Wheel Earns Drunk Man Trip to Jail

Occurred: 5/18/2102   02:20     10100 SPID     DWI                           1205180021

Two CCPD Officers patrolling the 10,100 block of SPID spotted a Toyota pickup stopped in the left lane of traffic, partially upon the grassy median.  When the officers stopped to investigate further, they observed Dustin Garcia (DOB: 5-12-1986) passed out behind the steering wheel, with the engine on, the car in drive, and his foot on the brake pedal.  When officers attempted to rouse Garcia,who exhibited several signs of intoxication, he merely pulled away and cursed at them.  Officers then forcibly removed Garcia from the vehicle, which began to roll forward before one of the Officers could jump into the driver seat and put the car in park.  Garcia continued to struggle and resist handcuffing and was, as a result, Tasered. Officers then handcuffed Garcia, who was charged with DWI and Resisting Arrest; Garcia was then booked at the City Detention Center.
