OSP Nabbed California Motorist for DUII after Redwood Highway Stop in CJ

The Oregon State Police arrested a motorist for impaired driving after responding to weekend traffic complaints on Redwood Highway in Cave Junction.

According to OSP, troopers pulled over a Ford F-350 pickup driven by 61-year-old Andrew Lawrence Hannon of Yreka, California, near milepost 31 of US Highway 199 on Saturday at 5:25 p.m..

Troopers said Hannon was reported to be swerving and unable to maintain his travel lane on the highway. Upon contact, he displayed signs of impairment. They said he performed poorly in field sobriety tests and was taken to the Cave Junction Substation where he provided a breath sample that exceeded the legal driving limit.

Hannon was subsequently transported to the Grants Pass Sobering Center where he was cited to appear in court for Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants. His pickup was impounded.
