Wis. Police: Intoxicated Man Tried To Reheat Pizza On Dashboard

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Police in southeastern Wisconsin say they arrested a man twice in one night for driving while impaired, and in the second bust officers found the 25-year-old was trying to reheat pizza slices on his dashboard.

The Sturtevant Police Department said both arrests happened on Saturday night. The first one happened after officers saw the man's car on westbound Durand Avenue, swerving into on-coming traffic.

The driver, who was not named, failed field sobriety tests and was arrested for what would be his second offence of drug impaired driving, police said.

Authorities released the man to a sober driver later in the night, but only 15 minutes passed before he was arrested again.

Police said officers found the man back inside his car, driving away while trying to warm up several pizza slices on his dashboard.

Yet again, the man failed field sobriety tests and was arrested. This would be his third offence of drug impaired driving.
