A Solon man was taken into custody last week after allegedly driving while intoxicated and having a firearm within reach.
Police stopped 22-year-old Grady Wolf of Rose Drive Northeast just after 10pm Thursday when he was reportedly observed driving at a high rate of speed down Main Street. He spun his tires while traveling around a corner, and a stop was initiated.
Wolf allegedly had bloodshot watery eyes, with the odor of alcohol on his breath. He reportedly admitting to drinking 4 tall-boys recently, and the officer observed several open containers in the vehicle.
Field and chemical testing allegedly showed Wolf to be over the legal limit to drive, and a loaded firearm was wedged between the front seat and the center console, clearly visible when he was stopped.
Wolf was charged with OWI first offense and Possession of a Firearm while Intoxicated. If convicted on both charges, Wolf could be sentenced to up to two years in jail.
