A 27-year old Maine man is jailed in Lincoln County, after troopers arrested him for driving drunk. They say he had a Blood Alcohol Content of .453, nearly six times the legal limit.
Just before 5:00 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 20, Communication Specialists with Troop D- North Platte received several calls from motorists alerting them to a white Toyota Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV), traveling eastbound on Interstate 80. The callers indicated the vehicle was all over the roadway and driving at erratic speeds.
A short time later, Nebraska State Patrol (NSP) troopers stopped a vehicle matching the description on eastbound I-80, three miles west of the Brady Interchange.
