Driver arrested for second DWI

Ruston Police arrested a West Monroe man last week after he was stopped driving the wrong way on Trenton Street and was allegedly found to be under the influence.

Jon Tyler Anderson, 28, was stopped for driving the wrong way on a one-way street about 10:30 p.m. on November 22. An officer detected a strong odor of alcoholic beverages on Anderson. A series of field sobriety tests indicated Anderson was impaired.


It was determined Anderson’s driver’s license had been suspended for a previous DWI. He was arrested and taken to the Lincoln Parish Detention Center where he refused to provide a breath sample to determine his blood alcohol content. He was booked for driving while intoxicated-second offense and driving under suspension. Bail was set at $2,500.
