DECATUR, Ala. (AP) - Officials say a Falkville man gave deputies
more than they asked for when he was pulled over on suspicion of
drunk driving.
Sheriff Greg Bartlett tells WAFF Tuesday that 48-year-old
Dewaine Elton Ott pulled out in front of a deputy in the early
morning hours of Halloween and the official observed the truck
weaving in and out of lanes heading to I-65.
Bartlett said the deputy pulled the truck over and during the
stop Ott stumbled out of the driver's seat and yelled, "I just
stole this truck!"
Ott was arrested for theft of the motor vehicle and several
traffic violations, including DUI.
The truck was stolen from the Morgan County Commission District
3 Shop.
