ARREST WARRANT / AFFIDAVIT: |
On 08/31/2021 I observed Mr. Brian Hyken traveling southbound on Gallatin Ave. at the intersection of Eastland Ave. I observed Hyken attempt to make a left tum onto Eastland Ave, run over the curb, collide with shrubbery and a fire hydrant on the furthest most south side of Eastland Ave. When I arrived on scene, I observed Hyken step out of the vehicle. Hyken advised he was coming from dinner at the Pearl Diver located at 1008 Gallatin Ave. and he was headed home to 1713 Porter Rd. Hyken stated he had 3 Gin & Tonics in the time span of 1.5 hours. The Hyken speech was slurred and repetitive. The Hyken eyes were bloodshot and watery. The defendant was unsteady on his feet. I performed standardized field sobriety tests Hyken. Hyken performed the tests very poorly. Based on Hyken performance of the standardized field sobriety tests, I further developed my probable cause to place Hyken under arrest for driving under the influence. After being placed under arrest and advised of his Miranda rights, Hyken was read the implied consent form and a breath sample was requested. Hyken refused to give a breath sample. |
