20-year-old Anton Clinard was arrested for driving under the influence after being involved in a car accident at the intersection of Port Royal and Head Road on July 13th. Police responded to a hit-and-run incident where a vehicle was found in a ditch. The vehicle attempted to drive off, ending up sideways in the roadway after hitting a barricade. Upon arrival at the scene, officers found Clinard unable to stand or walk and unable to perform sobriety tests.
Clinard confessed to having consumed several “tall boys” of beer. Officers observed Clinard’s red and watery eyes, slurred speech, and the smell of alcohol on his breath. An open beer can was also found within arm’s reach in the back seat. As a result, Clinard was arrested for driving while impaired and for having an open container of alcohol.
