On Saturday at about 3:51 a.m., Sgt. Roary Miller observed a vehicle traveling the wrong way on Hudson Street from Hudson Place. Miller conducted a motor vehicle stop in the area of 90 Hudson St.
Upon speaking to the driver, Miller suspected he was under the influence of an intoxicant. Officer Ricky Truppner responded and conducted a Standardized Field Sobriety Test on the driver, identified as Psoras.
Truppner concluded that Psoras was unable to operate a motor vehicle in a safe manner. so he was placed under arrest for DWI.
Psoras was transported to police headquarters, where he refused to provide breath samples for chemical testing, which he refused. He was issued his motor vehicle summonses before being released to a responsible party, authorities said.
