  • Friday at 2:57a.m., an officer responded to the Cookout on Waddell Street after the manager called in reference to a driver who had fallen asleep in the drive-through for 30 minutes. 

  The truck left before officers arrived and was found on Dearing Extension with the engine running, in gear and lights on. 

  The driver, a 19-year-old Athens man, told officers he had been drinking and was under the impression that he was in the parking lot of a sorority.

  He was arrested and charged with DUI.

  Drunken Mayhem on the Georgia-ULM Weekend

  Last weekend marked the kickoff of UGA's football season and the first real test for Athens-Clarke County's new underage consumption law, which grants officers the discretion to simply cite an offender or take them to jail like the good old days. So this weekend we all missed the sight of students standing on the side of the road with their hands zip-tied waiting for the paddy wagon. But the ACC police reports show an audacious new trend in the long tradition of fake IDs in Athens: Kids these days are simply taking scotch tape, placing it over their date of birth and writing in the magic number to get them in the door.

  "It was very enriching for me. I believe that I don't have all the answers, and I honestly believe that the answers for UGA and the greater community… [are] going to come out of [UGA]… those kids asked tough and layered questions."
