Police Chief Arrested for DUI

August 7th, 2008 · No Comments

Washington State- A report from a concerned citizen over a reckless driver led to the arrest of the Police Chief of a small Washington community.  This chief is now facing a Driving While Intoxicated (DUI) charge.  An issue has arisen over how the arresting officers administered a breathalyzer test.

The Police Chief of Pacific, who is a throat cancer survivor, speaks with a voice box through a hole in his throat.  The test is being challenged because it allegedly should have been administered through the throat, as the chief explained to the officers.  The continued to administer the test orally.

Pacific’s mayor will not take any action against the chief until he sees the police records from the arresting officers.
