I live about an hour away from where that was. It turned out to be one of the states congressmen or senaters son. That was a black eye.

Ditto.. seen many above 400, not to abnormal for chronic alcoholics to have extreme numbers.

.537 is the highest I've seen for a DUI arrest...they were passed out in the middle of an intersection at 1PM on a Tuesday.
