A Leitchfield man has been arrested after being accused of driving drunk on a moped and falling over in the middle of the street.
Wednesday afternoon at approximately 5:45, the Leitchfield Police Department and EMS responded to the intersection of West Main Street and North Claggett Drive on the report of a moped accident. Upon arriving at the scene, a witness told police that the moped operator, 61-year-old Roger L. Burks, was traveling east on West Main Street when he “just fell over in the middle of the street.”
Burks was apparently intoxicated and slightly injured.
He was transported by EMS to Owensboro Health Twin Lakes Medical Center for treatment and then lodged in the Grayson County Detention Center where he’s been charged with DUI.
