DWI with minor in vehicle
Gallup Police arrested a Church Rock man, Colby Livingston, 22, and charged with him aggravated DWI along with two counts of DWI with a minor in the vehicle.
Patrolman Anthony Morales responded to a report of a possible DWI with children at risk in the drive-thru of the McDonald’s at 2300 E. Hwy. 66. He arrived at the scene and found a vehicle matching the caller description, a white Chevrolet Equinox.
Morales activated his unit’s emergency lights before he approached the vehicle. He reportedly saw the driver, Livingston, slumped over at the wheel drifting in and out of consciousness. The report stated there was an infant in Livingston’s lap and a second infant in the backseat that was not secure in their seat.
Livingston began to stir when Morales announced his presence. He reportedly showed signs of intoxication including bloodshot eyes and, as described by the witness at the scene, slurred speech and smelling of alcohol. Livingston would not respond to Morales’ directions and tried to flee the scene upon exiting the vehicle, but he was restrained.
The witness, an employee at McDonald’s, told Morales that she had seen Livingston come through the drive-thru multiple times and he reportedly appeared drunk. After being transported to Gallup Police Department, Morales refused to take the Standard Field Sobriety Tests, but he did agree to the breath test. He posted two samples of .24.
Livingston was then taken to McKinley County Adult Detention Center and booked for aggravated DWI, open container, resisting arrest, and two counts of DWI with a minor in the vehicle. His pretrial hearing is set for June 27.
