DUI stop turned interesting when a Jupiter, FL man told Monroe County Sheriff’s deputies that he was "high and happy" from his vape pen.
Theodore John Evans, 51, was pulled over by a Monroe County Sheriff’s deputy on Wednesday, Feb. 16 at 10:45 a.m. According to the sheriff’s office, it had received a number of calls that a driver in a Toyota RAV4 was driving erratically, running red lights, passing in no-passing zones, and not staying in one lane of traffic.
According to Lt. David Smith who stopped Evans, the man was speaking quickly and nonsensically about how high he was “due to his use of a vape pen.” The deputy reported that Evans’ eyes were watery and bloodshot and that he failed field sobriety tests.
Marijuana edibles, glass pipe, and a vape pen were found inside of his SUV, according to the sheriff’s office.
