HOPKINSVILLE, KY (CHRISTIAN COUNTY NOW) – A drunk man making a beer run nearly ran into a police cruiser early Saturday morning.
At about 4:30 a.m., a 22-year-old man in a Honda Civic blew past a stop sign at East Parkview and East Ninth Street, according to a Hopkinsville Police Department citation report. He was “recklessly traveling into opposing traffic lanes, almost striking another police cruiser.”
The driver told police he’d just come from his house, where he’d been drinking. He had run out of beer and was on a run to buy some more, he said.
He was arrested on DUI and multiple traffic offenses.
