Preliminary plea of not guilty entered for Daniel Driver, 50, Yoder, charged with operating a vehicle with an alcohol concentration equivalency of .15 percent or more with a prior conviction for the same offense and operating a vehicle while intoxicated with a prior conviction for the same offense, both Level 6 feklinies; and disorderly conduct, a Class B misdemeanor.
Bluffton police responded to a report of a possibly intoxicated driver in the parking lot of the Short Stop convenience store June 10. The driver was reported to be in a silver Ford pickup truck.
As an officer arrived, he spotted a silver Ford truck in the lot and a man later identified as Driver behind the steering wheel attempting to back out of a parking space. The officer pulled in and prevented the truck from leaving.
The officer noted in his report to the court that Driver appeared to be intoxicated, struggled to maintain his balance and blew a .270 percent alcohol concentration equivalency on a Breathalyzer test — which is moe than three times Indiana’s legal limit for intoxication of .08 percent.
