Man Drives into Ditch in Dearborn, Arrested for Drunken Driving
A 25-year-old Taylor man was arrested Monday night after failing a breathalyzer test.

A 25-year-old man was arrested for drunken driving on Monday, Dec. 16, after police found his car stuck in a ditch between the northbound and southbound lanes of Miller Rd., just south of Rotunda Dr.
Police arrived on the scene around 12:15 a.m., as the driver of the black 1996 Saturn was trying to drive his car out of the deep snow.
After speaking with the man, it was obvious to police that he had been drinking, and when they asked him he admitted to having a few beers, according to the police report.
The driver’s blood-alcohol level was 0.20 percent, more than double the state’s 0.08 percent drunken driving limit.
He was arrested for operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol and his car was impounded, the report said.
