An off-duty detective was arrested when the police asserted that he was driving under the influence last weekend after he crashed into a parked car.
According to reports, early in the morning on July 14, a vehicle was being driven erratically through a neighborhood in Clifton, Kentucky. After crossing over the center line, the car smashed into an automobile that was parked on the opposite side of the street. No one was inside the parked car at the time, but other people who witnessed the incident called the authorities to let them know what happened.
Officers from the Louisville Metro Police Department headed to the location to investigate. The driver was no longer in the vehicle, but he was quickly found nearby. It was reported that when he was asked about the crash, he initially said he believed two individuals got out of the vehicle and quickly left the area.
