An intoxicated Wasilla man was found passed out in his running vehicle Monday, troopers say. The vehicle was in drive, but the man’s foot was on the brake.
At around 6 a.m., a passerby called 911 to report that a man was slumped over in his vehicle at the intersection of E. Merrill Circle and S. Hay Street in Wasilla, according to an Alaska State Trooper online dispatch.
Troopers found 23-year-old Denali Simpson asleep in his vehicle with his foot resting on the brake. Further investigation revealed Simpson was intoxicated, AST says.
Simpson was arrested for DUI and for driving with a revoked license, as a result of a previous DUI. He was taken to Mat-Su Pre-Trial Facility where bail was set as $2,500 cash-corporate.
