this weekend, the police station was full of alcoholic people
The Dry January (this challenge which aims not to drink a drop of alcohol during the month of January) does not seem to be part of the resolutions of the five people who, this weekend, found themselves in a drunk tank at the police station. ‘Annecy.
Friday January 13, around 3:40 a.m., a 21-year-old Annecy woman was checked when she was traveling too fast on the road from Chevesnes to Annecy. The police discovered that the driver was driving without a licence, without insurance, under the influence of an alcoholic state (0.64 mg/litre of exhaled air) and at the wheel of a vehicle which was immobilized. The car ended up in the pound while the driver, taken into custody, is summoned for a guilty plea hearing on April 4, 2023.
That same day, around 11:30 p.m., in front of the restaurant Chez Firmin, in Annecy, a 22-year-old homeless man claims that his phone was stolen from the establishment, even though he had not set foot there, and is aggressive with staff. The police arrest him and do it at the police station. Refusing to enter the drunk tank, he punched one policeman and ripped another’s pants. He had an alcohol level of 0.93 mg/litre of exhaled air.
During the night of Friday 13 to Saturday 14 January, the emergency services 112 and 18 report several repeated malicious calls. The police identify the author of the calls and will arrest him rue de Sancy. The 50-year-old from Annecy was taken into custody. He was under the influence of an alcoholic state with a rate of 0.90 mg per liter of expired air.
Sunday, January 15, around 12:50 a.m., members of the anti-crime brigade checked a 36-year-old man who was riding a motorcycle without a helmet, rue de Sansy, in Annecy. Refusing to be checked, the driver flees and breaks the mirror of a vehicle. Unbalanced, he continues on foot and hides in a bush. During his police custody, blood alcohol screening determined that he was driving with a rate of 0.5 mg/litre of exhaled air. The police also discover that the motorcycle was stolen from Seynod. The man was tried on Monday January 16. He was sentenced to 12 months in prison, this new sentence dropping a previous reprieve.
That same Sunday, around 2:25 a.m., a client of Finn Kelly’s bar, unhappy to have been taken out of the establishment, returned armed with a stone and broke a window. Detained by the security guard and a client, this 29-year-old homeless man was taken to the police station. It showed a rate of 0.71 mg per liter of exhaled air. He is summoned before a judicial police officer soon.
