31.12.69
BLOOMINGTON, Minn. - A Richfield, Minn., man was pulled over and arrested on suspicion of his 12th DWI after nearly causing a crash in a Bloomington parking lot on Sunday, police said.
Gilbert Ricardo Garcia, 53, was seen driving a blue Ford pickup truck through the main road in a parking lot by an officer. The officer saw the truck pull in front of another vehicle, causing the driver to slam on the brakes to prevent an accident.
The officer ran the plates on the Ford and found the truck belonged to a person with an expired driver’s license, and the driver matched the owner’s description. The officer pulled Garcia over and quickly found his speech was slurred and his eyes were bloodshot and watery.
According to the criminal complaint, Garcia told the officer the truck belonged to his boss.
The officer said Garcia “miserably failed” every field sobriety test given, and refused to do the one-legged test. A Breathalyzer test found Garcia had a blood-alcohol content of .17.
