34-year-old Jonathan Bird and his friend were coming from drinking in downtown Nashville late Friday night when Bird, who was driving, crashed the vehicle near Fesslers Lane and Lebanon Pike. Officers believed him to be under the influence, and he agreed to participate in field sobriety tests. He performed poorly on every test, indicating signs of impairment. He later admitted to having “two strong Crown and Coke” drinks, along with a 24 oz Budweiser earlier on his way home from work.
Jonathan M. Bird of Woodshire Drive in Smyrna, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on May 20, charged with driving under the influence (DUI) and violation of the implied consent law. He is free on a $2,000 bond.
