MANITOWOC, WI (WTAQ) – A 41-year-old man, who officers say was nearly four times the legal limit for driving, has been taken into custody after reportedly being found parked on a street, with two children inside the vehicle.
Officers were dispatched Thursday night to South 37th Street, saying they found Luis Jimenez slumped over the wheel, sleeping.
They claim the two kids, whose ages were reacted from police records, were also asleep.
Police say they got no response when they knocked on the window, opening the door to notice a nearly empty bottle of vodka at Jimenez’s feet.
Jimenez allegedly blew a .30, which is well above the legal limit of .08.
The car belonged to Jimenez’s aunt, who lived one block away from where he was reportedly parked.
Officers say she came to claim the vehicle and the children.
While formal charges had not been filed at last word, Jimenez is expected to appear in a Manitowoc County Courtroom on Friday.
