In a concerning incident on Wednesday afternoon, a male driver was taken into custody in Woodbury after being found asleep at the wheel with an infant present in the vehicle. The event occurred around 3:10 p.m. near the intersection of Joshua Hill and Tuttle roads. Law enforcement officials responded to the scene following reports from concerned citizens about a stationary car blocking traffic. Upon arrival, police discovered the driver unconscious behind the wheel while a young child occupied the back seat. Authorities acted swiftly to ensure the safety of all involved.
Upon reaching the location, state troopers observed that the vehicle had come to a halt at a stop sign, creating a hazardous situation for other road users. Inside the car, they found the driver in a non-responsive state with a six-month-old infant secured in the rear. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, officers decided to break the passenger-side window to gain access. Further investigation revealed that the driver was under the influence and in possession of items related to narcotics use. This discovery prompted immediate action, leading to his arrest.
The well-being of the infant remained paramount throughout the ordeal. Once the child was safely removed from the vehicle, authorities ensured their prompt return to the legal guardian. The Department of Children and Families was promptly notified to handle any necessary follow-up regarding the child's welfare. Meanwhile, the driver faced multiple charges, including operating a vehicle with a minor passenger while intoxicated, endangering a minor, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Following the incident, the driver was granted a conditional release on a bond set at ,500. He is scheduled to appear before a court on February 14th. The swift response by law enforcement prevented what could have been a tragic outcome, underscoring the importance of vigilance and timely intervention in such critical situations.
