A man was arrested Friday evening after Ruston Police officers responded to a rollover vehicle crash on Sunset Boulevard.
Miles A. Kelso, 23, of Dallas, Texas was identified as the driver. An officer reportedly smelled what appeared to be an alcoholic beverage on Kelso’s breath. Kelso admitted drinking before the crash.
Kelso performed poorly on field sobriety tests and was arrested and transported to the Lincoln Parish Detention Center where a breath test was administered. After the test revealed a blood alcohol test of .13g%, well over the .08 threshold set in Louisiana law, Kelso was booked for DWI-first offense and careless operation of a vehicle.
Bail was set at $1,500 and Kelso was bonded out Saturday.
