29-year-old Michael Wright was speeding in a vehicle with expired tags near 4th Avenue and Lafayette Street in the early hours of February 19th. Officers observed this, conducted a traffic stop, and noticed a strong odor of alcohol as they approached the driver’s side. Wright was unsteady on his feet as they asked him to exit his vehicle, and then he admitted to having a couple of drinks at Barstool before driving to work. Wright consented to sobriety tests, performed poorly, and agreed to provide a breath sample after being informed of implied consent, which resulted in 0.121 BAC%. He was then taken into custody for driving under the influence.
