Wednesday September 04, 2024

     Oxnard police say one of their officers was working school zone enforcement Tuesday morning in the area of Fred Williams School when he saw a vehicle fail to yield at a stop sign.

     He pulled the vehicle over and when he contacted the driver they say the officer could smell alcohol and also observed a beer can in the center console of the man's vehicle.

     The officer took the driver into custody and when the breathalyzer results came back it indicated the man had a .31% BAC, nearly four times the legal limit for DUI alcohol.

     The 37-year-old Oxnard man was booked into the Ventura County Jail on several DUI related misdemeanors plus a misdemeanor charge of being an unlicensed driver.
