Story comes complete with dash cam video
A 55-year-old Wausau man was cited Sunday with operating a snowmobile on the roadway after using his sled to make a cigarette run.
A police officer spotted the snowmobile on Stewart Avenue around 6:30 p.m. Dec. 4.The operator, identified by police as John Grassl, was pulled over a few blocks later near the 400 block of West Street.“Awe, man. Really?” dash cam audio captured Grassl saying.
According to the police report, Grassl said he began drinking during the 3:25 p.m. Packers game and then headed to the gas station for cigarettes.
Why am I not surprised? But wait, it gets better:
Grassl is seen on dash cam lighting up a cigarette during the interview with police.
A preliminary breath test showed Grassl blew a .186-- more than twice the legal limit for driving an automobile.
That's a lot of drinks in under three hours.
