08:56 An owner called in with video of a hit-and-run in front of Barrels & Bins in Driggs. The log time is when the call came in. The footage is from around two or three that morning. In it, a truck tries to burn out, spins out, jumps the curb and hits a light pole. Once the truck comes to rest, a dog in the back pops its head up, as if to ask what is going on. Then the truck tries to get off the curb and leaves the scene.
10:10 A driver in Driggs hit a parked vehicle, and then called in to report having hit a parked vehicle. Model citizenship.
20:09 A deputy in Victor made a traffic stop, and the driver was detained for further testing. Breath readings came back at .110 and .109, against a legal limit of .08. The vehicle was towed. A 57-year-old Victor woman was taken into custody and cited for second-offense DUI. She bonded out and was given a courtesy ride home. The deputy let her bring her dog.
