the I'm thinking
slightly I'll you here shortly you want
that prop 15 did he admit to being the
driver of this incident affirmative
police reports share that the victim was
taken to a nearby hospital shortly after

this officer questions the suspects f
about the incident okay stepen there's
your driver's license back than you sir
and there's yours Alan thank you is is

getting a little odor of intoxic coming
off
you do you mind if I run you through
Fields check that out make sure you're
okay to
drive I prefer not to but if you have to
I mean with what's happened at this
point I would like to just to make sure
that you're okay to drive okay okay yep
okay can you step over here with me
man so okay you stand with your feet
together arms down by your side don't
move from here unless I tell you to okay
do you understand that all right okay at
this point I'm was going to check your
eyes what I need you to do is follow my
finger with just your eyes and your eyes
only okay yep okay the officer repeats
this hgn test a few times unfortunately
for a large portion of the test the
officer's arm blocks our visual of the
suspect's eyes making it difficult to
see for ourselves how the suspect is
performing the test are you following my
finger I'm trying to with your eyes yeah
I don't see your eyes moving at all
however from what we can see it appears
the suspect is showing signs of
horizontal gaze nagus or hgn hgn is the
involuntary jerking of one's eye when it
gazes side to side and could be a sign
of
impairment okay you can relax for a
minute thank you okay so this next test
is going to be the walk and turn so I'm
going to you stand with your feet
together again arms down by your side
what I need you to do is imagine a
straight line going from you to my squad
straight line doesn't turn or anything
straight line can you imagine that for
me yeah okay what I need you to do is
place your left foot on that line so
take your left foot now and place it on
that
line the officer notes in his police
report that the suspect had stepped to
the right with his right foot during
this portion of the test after being
told to put his left foot on the
imaginary line while the report does not
definitively say that this was a sign
towards the suspect's possible
intoxication it is still mentioned along
with other missteps we will highlight on
screen and then place your right foot in
front of that foot heel the toe like
this you can do that
now just once just put your left foot on
the line and then place your right foot
in front of that foot heel to toe on
that line left foot left foot on the
line right foot heel the toe he the toe
okay keep your arms down by your side
and stand there don't move and t t you
understand that no okay and then when I
say begin what you're going to do is
take nine heel to pill steps across that
along that line when you get to nine
take a series of small steps to turn and
take nine more heal the tost out
back across that line okay all right you
understand that yep okay so it's going
to look like
this one two three and so on until you
get to nine when you get to nine take a
series of small steps like this to turn
and then take nine heel it steps back
across that line one two 3 until you
reach nine do you understand yep okay so
as you're doing this count every step
out loud eyes on your feet at all times
keep your arms down by your sides and do
stop until you finished do you
understand that all right okay you may
begin one 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
9 one 2 3 4 5 6 7
you
finished that was n right mhm okay okay
next test a one leg stand what I have
you do is stand again with your feet
together arms down by your
side don't move from here tell tell to
do you understand that okay so for this
test what we going have you do is pick
up either leg doesn't matter either one
of your
choice keep pick it up approximately 6
in from the ground keep it parallel to
ground and count in the following matter
1001 1002 1003 1004 and so on until I
tell you to stop do you understand okay
okay so as you're doing this watch your
raised foot at all time count out loud

178 1 okay man you can stop there okay
okay so at this point I do believe
you're under the influence of something
that's causing you to be impaired are
you willing to do a PBT just so I
can just to prove that it's alcohol not
no other kind of drugs or anything like
that it can't be used against you in cor
or anything like that it's just I'd
rather not you'd rather not y okay
so at this time you'll be under arrest
for your o of the side by side okay okay
do you have anything on you is going to
stick me stab me poke me I got a knife
okay if you want to leave that in the
side by side for
me I can okay and then well anything
else that you don't want to go with just
leaving the side by side I guess at this
point okay okay I you come back with car
with me
[Applause]
so he can drive it home or is he under
the influence also he said he's been
drinking
so I I don't think he had much to drink
or I don't know okay well we can figure
that out in a minute man I'm just going
to talk with this other guy quick okay
okay we can take a man5 me right away so
we'll do the DNR it'll be DNR obviously
but then of course the hit and run of
stuff and everything else will address
when the officer says DNR he is likely
referring to the Department of Natural
Resources since standard law enforcement
officers typically don't get involved in
recreational parks and trails a DNR
conservation Warden will usually have
deeper knowledge of the recreational
safety laws that were broken later on
one of the officers gets in contact with
a conservation Warden to discuss those
possible charges sounds good all right
go for
it like I said you're under ARR be
coming with me so sir so what's your
plan for the rest of the night here my

okay so your name's Allan Right hey
you're not in custody man I just want to
talk to you with what happened tonight
okay what's going on what happened today
well we were coming back from B and when
we cross the bridge yeah there was a a
thud 22 whatever I I did not see
anything I I thought there was like a
board was too low or something on the
bridge okay and Steve said he thought he
saw a bear
okay whatever okay so you guys didn't
see nothing on the road or on the trail
that you were riding on I I didn't so
Al's not going be I got to come get it
later we are having a toad at this point
so oh
poop we can't just leave it here so yep
I hear you do we have an option who
could toast it it's crowy whittenberg
okay cuz I Eric kessen out of burnamwood
is a somebody I know that might be able
to help out that's if I have an option
okay so I'm going to read you this and
then I'm going to ask you a question and
I need your answer yes or no on this
okay so you have been arrested for a
violation of the intoxicated operation
laws and under Wisconsin implicit
consent Provisions I am required to read
this to you the test results of the fact
of you refusing testing can and maybe
use against you in court will you submit
to an evidentiary chemical test of your
blood yes or no no no this no okay so
then we're going to have to go to the
house I'm going to have to take you to
the jail you're going to sit in there
and I'm have to get a search warrant for
your blood at this time okay all right
40 we're going to be impounding that UTV
and there's no way I could get the Cado
to do it no not at this time you will
have criminal DNR charges I'll come
around and check make sure you got your
phone on you my backpack right there yep
right
[Music]
there because the suspect refused to
consent to a chemical breath test a
blood draw search warrant was requested
and approved by a judge how do you feel
about
needles right you got to do what you got
to
do some rine you can handle it
yeah what's going on there I'm supposed
to bleed
fast it
happens it's being shy what you trying
to kill
me my BL out I got to make sure the test
is Right vampires for a reason right
ouch I know I don't even have a lollipop
for
you what what I know it's just wrong
never going to do this again if I don't
get no l good that's what we want
according to police reports the test
recorded a blood alcohol content of 118%
which is more than .3% over the legal
limit the driver of the suspected UTV
likely spent at least 3 days in jail
before paying a $500 cash Bond along
with a signature Bond of $5,000 meaning
if they failed to show up to court they
would then have to pay that amount as a
penalty they were also ordered to
maintain absolute sobriety to avoid any
contact with the victim and were
restricted from traveling outside of the
state without Court approval according
to court records he faces charges that
consist of failure to take an alcohol
test operating UTV without each person
wearing a seat belt operating UTV on
non-designated trail operating UTV
without required headgear operating UTV
in a careless way operating UTV and
causing injury operating UTV with a pack
over 8% operating UTV and causing injury
with a pack over 8% first degree
recklessly endangering ing safety and
failure to report the UTV accident as of
editing this video this case is still
being decided by the court system as the
suspect has pled not guilty to all
charges the final pre-trial date should
be held on June 24th 2024 the passenger
on scene was not suspected of any
wrongdoing it's summertime here in
Minnesota and that means Peak ATV season
so wanted to post a timely video showing
what can happen when mixing alcohol and
an ATV this incident happened on a
public Trail but in most States an
injury crash with an ATV even on private
property can result in criminal charges
especially if the driver is suspected of
drinking be careful out there so as fun
as this
was I really don't want to see you again
okay
Jo I thought she was talking to me at
first I don't want to see you
