Antonio Carmelo, 20, was observed “suspicious” at the intersection of School Lane and Weaver Drive at 1:50 a.m. on June 27. Officers arrived and observed Carmelo’s vehicle running, so they approached.

Carmelo admitted to drinking three of the four beers they found in his car before and while he was driving. They asked him to take sobriety tests, which he consented to and which malfunctioned. He was detained for the incident and agreed to provide a blood sample after being advised of implied consent. Carmelo was transported to Nashville General Hospital and booked for driving under the influence of alcohol.
