Drunk Florida Man On Riding Mower Also High On Cocaine - Gets DUI
An officer was inside a local business when he heard a loud crash from outside. After walking outside, the officer found Gary Anderson, 68, sitting atop a lawn mower with a trailer.
Anderson admitted to hitting the vehicle while riding his lawn mower and was given a field sobriety test, which he failed.
While at the police department, Anderson claimed to have been poisoned by police and demanded to be taken to the hospital. At the hospital, Anderson's blood-alcohol content was registered at .241, more than three times the legal limit.
Cocaine was also found in Anderson's blood, but he said the police put the cocaine there.
