Aggravated DWI
On his way through the drive-thru at a Lotaburger, Myron Scott, 30, address not listed, hit the curb. His poor driving led to a visit to Pep Boys at 702 U. S. Hwy 491 by Gallup Patrolman Jarad Albert.
Dispatch said Scott had slurred his speech when his orange Ford Explorer veered out of the restaurant lane.
When Albert arrived, the Explorer was parked in front of the store with the engine running.
Scott seemed to have difficulty locating the documentation Albert requested. The patrolman said he also had bloodshot eyes and slurred speech and a woman inside the truck who tried to speak for him.
Scott got out of the truck and told Albert he had consumed two 12-oz. beers prior to driving. He agreed to take the standard field sobriety tests, but failed and was placed under arrest after Albert concluded his investigation.
Albert transported Scott to Gallup Police Department for the breath test, where he posted samples of .18 and .17. He then took him to the county jail for booking, but Scott was denied booking after jail staff finished their medical evaluation.
The report did not state whether a summons was later filed.

There were also an unspecified number of passengers in the vehicle, who were all transported from the scene by a tow truck driver.

After a visit to the casino, it was hard to wake Adrian Catron up. The 30 year-old from Saint Michaels, Ariz. reportedly passed out behind the wheel of a GMC Sierra near the 16-mile marker of Interstate 40.
New Mexico State Police Officer Merlin Billy was called out to conduct a welfare check.
When he arrived he found a vehicle matching the description he was given with its headlights on and engine running. He approached the driver’s side and found a male asleep in the driver’s seat.
Catron did not wake up when Billy opened the driver’s door, but did stir when the vehicle was turned off. Billy had to eventually shout to get Catron’s attention, and he noted Catron had bloodshot eyes and slurred speech. When asked to get out of the Sierra, Catron staggered as he walked toward the back of the vehicle.
When asked if he had had anything to drink prior to driving, Catron admitted to having three beers at the casino. He agreed to take the standard field sobriety tests, but failed and was placed under arrest.
Catron was transported to the local state police office for a breath test, where he posted two samples of .21. He was then taken to McKinley County Adult Detention Center and booked.
