On February 12, 2010, a 26-year-old Oak Harbor man was arrested by Anacortes Police in Anacortes on charges of DUI and felony hit and run after he allegedly struck an 82-year-old pedestrian who was walking with two caregivers on Whistle Lake Road around 11:45 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 13.
Witnesses provided a license plate number for the fleeing vehicle and an officer stopped it near 37th Street and Commercial Avenue. The driver reportedly had an overwhelming smell of intoxicants on him and appeared to have difficulty staying awake. He had slurred speech and allegedly admitted he had “a couple.”
He failed field sobriety tests and was arrested on charges of DUI and hit and run. He provided breath samples approximately two and a half times the legal limit. He was booked into jail. Another case for the very busy Skagit County Court.
