BREMERTON, Wash.– A Seattle Police officer was arrested for suspicion of drunken driving earlier this month, the Washington State Patrol confirmed Friday.

Scott Moss, who until recently was a department spokesman and one of the public faces of the SPD, was pulled over at about 2 a.m. April 2 on Kitsap Way outside Bremerton, according to the WSP.

Moss was allegedly going 10 mph. over the posted speed limit of 35 mph.

According to the Patrol, the trooper noticed signs that Moss had been drinking and also learned that Moss was a Seattle Police Officer.

Moss was arrested after he failed a field sobriety test and his car was impounded. Moss later took a blood alcohol content test, the results of which were not made available.

He was then taken to a nearby relative's house where he was cited for DUI and released.

The citation said Moss acted in a professional and polite way and cooperated with the trooper.
