LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) - A Lafayette man faces criminal charges for operating a vehicle while intoxicated.
54-year-old Duane Alexander Sr. crashed his car into a parked car on North 9th Street last week. According to court documents, police officers noticed that Alexander was intoxicated.
Alexander told police he took a lot of prescription drugs for medical reasons and even admitted he was not supposed to drive when he took the medication. Alexander failed several field sobriety tests.
Along with an OWI, he was charged with operating a motor vehicle while privileges are forfeited for life, which is a felony.
