21-year-old Giovanni Bolstad told police he had “one or two beers” at a bar before being involved in a crash on I-40 West in the early hours of Saturday morning. He reeked of alcohol and performed poorly on field sobriety tests. As he was being taken into custody for DUI, a search of his person revealed a loaded Ruger LCP .380 in his pocket. He later blew a 0.150% BAC on a breathalyzer.
