26-year-old Fort Campbell soldier Dustin Lehrke told police he had taken a muscle relaxer and drank five alcoholic beverages within the timespan of one hour as he traveled through a St. Patrick’s Day roadblock near Lewis County Store late Friday night. As he spoke with officer Groeneweg, he was “robotic” in his responses and showed multiple signs of intoxication. He performed poorly on two of the field sobriety tests and was taken into custody. A blood draw was completed at a nearby hospital.
Dustin Lehrke of Willow States in Clarksville, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on March 18th, charged with driving under the influence. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $1,000.
