DUI. Police arrested a 63-year-old Ormond Beach woman after officers observed her swerving while driving westbound on Wilmette Road, noting that she was crossing over the double yellow line several times. When she was pulled over and asked to step out of the vehicle, the woman spontaneously cursed and said she was going to jail.
The woman told police that she was on her to Winn Dixie to buy a pack of cigarettes and that she had a hurt right hip. Police conducted the standard field sobriety exercises, all of which the woman performed incorrectly. She was then transported to the police department for a breath test.
It was then she began burping, at the end of both attempts of the 20-minute observation, with the intention to prolong the process, police reported. She was transported to the Volusia County Branch Jail.

Possession of open container. A 62-year-old man was arrested by deputies after being found sitting on a company's concrete Florida Power and Light power box with an open container of Natty Daddy beer.
Deputies reported that the beer can was "cold to the touch, had been opened and contained approximately one-half of its contents." The report noted that the contents were also of a "brown/golden color" and smelled like alcohol. The man continued to drink the contents of the Natty Daddy beer even as he spoke with deputies, violating a county ordinance.
He was transported to the Volusia County Branch Jail.
