A 54-year-old Evansville man is arrested for drunken driving for the seventh time after crashing into a down tree branch and taking out a power pole.
The Rock county Sheriff’s Office says because the power lines were on the road, traffic on Highway 213 just north of Orfordville had to be rerouted for nearly two hours early Thursday morning.
The driver, Robert L. Zapata was not injured but after displaying signs of impairment and failing field sobriety tests, he was placed under arrest.
Zapata has six prior alcohol-related driving convictions.
