Drunk driver crashes, heads straight to dealership to try to promote broken automotive with lacking tire

EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) - Police say they arrested a driver who was 3.5 times the authorized alcohol limit after at the least five people known as 911.

Officers say the calls started coming in round 4:40 p.m. Monday.

They are saying witnesses reported seeing a SUV hit the median of the Lloyd Expressway near the Primary Street exit. They are saying the crash prompted a flat tire and the automobile to smoke, but the driver kept going.

Other callers say the driving force was all around the street and now lacking a entrance tire.

They are saying he eventually stopped at a car dealership and appeared “super drunk.”

Workers advised police the driving force, 30-year-old Jordon Mattingly, was making an attempt to sell his SUV.

Mattingly is going through a number of expenses.

He is the son of the manager for the Miami Marlins and former skilled baseball player, Don Mattingly.
