Police officers get drunk

DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - March 1, 2010

Law enforcement officers in southwest Ohio have been chugging to help their colleagues.

Several officers and deputies in Montgomery County volunteered to drink, so officers could practice giving field sobriety tests.

They boozed it up until they had slurred speech, glassy eyes and a lack of coordination.

Dayton officer Will Wright hopes the exercise will give his colleagues needed experience on dealing with drunks.
