Holmes Beach police arrested a Bradenton man for driving under the influence — at more than twice the legal alcohol limit.
William Doubet II, 33, was stopped at 4:42 a.m. Aug. 19 after HBPD Officer Alan Bores observed his red Chevy without tail lights turn east onto Manatee Avenue at Gulf Drive, according to the police report.
The report states the motorist was coming from a friend’s house and had forgotten to turn on his vehicle lights. He told police he had consumed “two or three beers.”
Bores also reported finding a cold, sweaty can of beer in the vehicle.
Doubet II performed poorly on field-sobriety tests and was transported to the Manatee County jail, where he provided breath samples measuring 0.211 and 0.207 blood-alcohol content. The legal BAC is 0.08.
The state filed a formal DUI charge Aug. 25.
He was booked at the jail and released on a $500 pending an 8:25 a.m. Wednesday, Sept. 20, arraignment at the Manatee County Judicial Center, 1051 Manatee Ave. W., Bradenton.
