Deputy makes 2 DUI arrests in 1 traffic stop

[September 12, 2009]  SALEM, Ore. (AP) -- A Marion County deputy made two drunk driving arrests in one traffic stop.

The sheriff's office said Deputy Ryan Clarke stopped a car driven by 59-year-old woman early Friday. While giving her a field sobriety test, a second car pulled up and the woman's boyfriend approached.

Clarke suspected the 66-year-old man was also drunk and performed a field sobriety test on him.

Clarke found both appeared to be driving under the influence and took them to the county jail.
