OCPD Nabs Two Drunken Drivers in Half Hour

Oak Creek police made two drunken-driving arrests within about a half-hour span in the early morning hours of Oct. 6.

According to Oak Creek police reports:

An anonymous 911 caller led police to a vehicle that was eventually pulled over in the 6300 block of S. 27th St. about 12:50 a.m.

Police arrested a 29-year-old Milwaukee man, who had a preliminary blood-alcohol content of .15.

Thirty-three minutes later, an officer approached the driver of a vehicle parked by the bathrooms of Marathon gas station, 9502 S. Howell Ave.

A woman told police she had left an Oak Creek bar and was parked for the last 10 minutes waiting for someone.

The officer noticed a strong odor of intoxicants and arrested the woman after she registered a preliminary blood-alcohol content of .21.
