29-year-old Allie “Al” Edmund Whitt was operating a small personal watercraft near Party Cove on Percy Priest Lake Saturday afternoon when he took a sharp turn, causing his passenger to be thrown off. A TWRA agent observed this incident and initiated his blue lights to make contact with Whitt. Whitt was visibly intoxicated and was moving a can of Michelob Ultra from between his legs to the outside area of the watercraft. He reportedly reeked of alcohol but denied drinking anything all day. He performed poorly on field sobriety tests and was taken into custody.
Allie Edmond Whitt was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on June 3rd, charged with leaving the scene of an accident, boating implied consent, boating under the influence, boating identification violation, and boating negligent operation. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $3,600.
