According to a report released this past week by the Chattooga County Sheriff’s office, on June 23rd, Deputies were made aware of a possible drunk driver during a stationary patrol. They followed the suspected vehicle and initiated a traffic stop. Brandon Simpson appeared under the influence of alcohol as his mannerisms and movements were very slow and his eyes were heavy. Simpson was asked to exit the vehicle and was swaying and staggering back and forth. He told the deputies he had been drinking enough to be put behind bars. Simpson agreed to do a Field Sobriety test, to which he could not complete the tasks asked of him. He stated he couldn’t do a breathalyzer test and was then placed under arrest for DUI. The deputies also found many open alcoholic beverage containers in his vehicle.
