The Rhode Island State Police apprehended a driver yesterday with what they say may be the highest ever blood-alcohol content recorded by the state.
Just before midnight yesterday, state police went to the scene of an accident on Route 95, near Providence Place Mall. A vehicle had hit a Department of Transportation sign.
According to a statement released by Maj. Steven O'Donnell, the driver, Stanley Kobierowski, 34, was slurring his words and had trouble getting out of his vehicle.
Troopers had to brace Kobierowski, according to O'Donnell, and help him walk to the back of his vehicle, which was blocking the highway, but he resisted, grabbing on to his vehicle. O'Donnell said troopers had to pick Kobierowski up and carry him into the breakdown lane to get him out of traffic.
The suspect continued to struggle, O'Donnell said, but troopers were able to handcuff him. He was too unsteady to do any of the sobriety tests, troopers said.
When Kobierowski agreed to take a blood alcohol test, his first reading was .489 and the second reading was .491, according to O'Donnell, who said this is believed to be the highest ever reading obtained by state police.
The legal limit for Rhode Island drivers is .08.
Because of the dangerously high readings, Kobierowski was taken by rescue to Rhode Island Hospital, and restrained by the staff because of his aggressiveness, according to O'Donnell. He was held in the detoxification unit.
According to O'Donnell, Kobierowski will be arraigned after his release from the hospital.
