1 Cop Arrests Another for DUI
City DUI Copy arrests Tennessee State trooper on a charge of DUI
While that would be embarrassing enough, consider that Trooper Vernon Pruitt was then booked for DUI at the Charles W. Pruitt Justice Center. It's named for his late father, who was a long-time Millington judge.
The 49-year-old trooper is charged with DUI or driving under the influence, reckless driving and speeding.
The arresting officer's report states Pruitt was stopped Thursday morning and allegedly performed poorly on DUI field sobriety tests, then blew a 0.09 on a blood-alcohol test. That's just above the 0.08 level of presumed intoxication.
