A single-vehicle crash in Lincoln Parish resulted in a DWI arrest last week.
Michael Sergey Pike, 26, of Arcadia was arrested April 30 at the crash scene on La. Highway 151.
According to an arrest affidavit, deputies responded to the crash about 11:30 p.m. and found a Ford F-150 truck had struck a gas meter in a yard. Pike was seated in the driver’s seat.
Pike reportedly showed signs of impairment, including slurred speech, swaying while standing, and a strong odor of alcohol. Pike admitted to drinking earlier in the evening, according to the report. He told deputies he lost control of the truck and ran into the yard.
Field sobriety tests were conducted, and authorities determined Pike was impaired.
A records check indicated the vehicle’s registration had expired, and Pike had a prior DWI arrest in 2022. During a search, authorities located an open container in the center console and a firearm in the rear seat area.
Pike was taken into custody and transported to the Lincoln Parish Detention Center, where he provided a breath sample showing a 0.215% blood alcohol concentration, according to the affidavit.
He was booked on charges including second-offense driving while intoxicated, careless operation, open container, and expired vehicle registration.
