According to police, besides being intoxicated, the driver also had multiple arrest warrants out for him.
WILLOUGHBY HILLS, Ohio - An alleged drunken driver narrowly avoided hitting a Willoughby Hills police officer standing on the side of I-90 West near Bishop Road after a traffic stop this past weekend, police said.
Over the weekend, WHPD officers were finishing up a traffic stop on I-90 West near Bishop Road. The officer advised the driver to be cautious when he was entering his vehicle and merging back onto the roadway. At the same time, an approaching vehicle moved over from the center lane into the right lane next to where the officer was concluding the traffic stop and releasing the motorist. The vehicle failed to move over or slow down as required by law.
At the same time, another driver moved from the center lane into the right lane, right next to where the officer was standing, police said. This is in violation of the law that requires drivers to move over or slow down when approaching stationary emergency vehicles with their lights activated, police said.
A second police officer assisting at the traffic stop used his air horn to warn the other officer and then pulled out and caught up to the driver.
