An off-duty Florida police officer was arrested after deputies allegedly found him stopped in the roadway while driving under the influence following reports of dangerous driving.

According to the authorities, deputies responded during the early morning hours after receiving reports of a vehicle traveling the wrong way and striking curbs. When they located the car, it was reportedly stopped in the roadway with its engine still running and the driver seated behind the wheel.

The trooper lost sight of the vehicle before he could intervene, and a description of the vehicle was distributed so other law enforcement officers could keep an eye out.

According to reports, approximately 20 minutes later, an off-duty State Trooper noticed a car that appeared to be breaking several traffic laws. They alleged that in addition to driving unsafely, the vehicle, which also matched the description of the one reported, was swerving between the lanes on the road. The trooper pulled over the car, and the driver stopped without incident. A report released by the Massachusetts State Police said the trooper “observed clear signs of impairment to include bloodshot glossy eyes and the distinct odor of an alcoholic beverage” when initially interacting with the man.
