DUI Suspect Tells Cops, “I Do This Every Night”

Indiana DUI suspect tells cops ‘Dude, I do this every night,’ police say

A northwest Indiana man was arrested early Thursday morning near Portage and accused of driving with a blood-alcohol level almost four times the state’s legal limit of .08 percent.

“Dude, I do this every night; I’m straight up and not drunk!” Zachary Duis told an Indiana state trooper after he was pulled over, police said.

The unfortunately named Duis, 24, of Portage, was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated. He was also wanted on two Porter County warrants for resisting law enforcement and furnishing alcohol to a minor, both misdemeanors.

A Porter County sheriff’s deputy pulled over the 1995 Chevrolet S-10 pickup about 2:20 a.m., and the state trooper arrived shortly after.

Duis failed field sobriety tests and was taken to the Portage Police Department for a certified breath test, state police said.

He was later taken to the Porter County Jail.
