You know, if you make the decision to drink and drive, you are not only endangering yourself, but also endangering the health and safety of all those on the road with you. The Franklin County Sheriff’s Department admits that a career in law enforcement is exciting, and you get to experience something new every day. Sometimes you see things you can’t believe! This weekend, deputies were notified of a possible intoxicated driver traveling northbound on Interstate 35. The vehicle was located and eventually pulled over.
Deputies were surprised to see that the driver was wearing a beer can costume. Yes, you heard that right…. A beer can costume. The driver was eventually placed under arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol and transported to the Franklin County Jail. Officials urge all those who drink any alcohol to have a designated driver or to call a cab and not choose to get behind the wheel in an altered state of mind.
