Really Odd DUI, DWI and DUII News – Easy Arrests

Oregon DUII at police station – Ruby Ann Pederson, 42, of Newport arrived at the Oregon State Police headquarters to clean the offices. A trooper thought she displayed signs of intoxication and a test revealed a blood-alcohol content of 0.19%, more than twice the legal limit. Pederson was charged with Oregon DUII and, because she arrived with her 12-year old son in the car, reckless endangerment.

Minnesota DWI for man after being told he was free to leave – Police in New Hope responded to an argument in an apartment parking lot and encountered a drunk Maceo Julius Phillips. Phillips could not maintain his balance during his talk with police and readily admitted to drinking. When told he could leave, Maceo went inside the apartment building but not before looking toward his car. Suspicious, police waited and shortly later saw Maceo, 27, walk to his car and start to drive away. He was charged with his fourth offense for driving while intoxicated in Minnesota.
