DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE
On February 9 around 10:22 p.m., Officer Holleran responded to 3376 Post Road in the area of The Remington House for a vehicle versus pedestrian motor vehicle accident.
At the scene the officer located a red Jeep parked southbound on Post Road with a woman laying on the ground conscious and breathing. The operator of the vehicle was identified as Joseph Greene, 49, of 17 Duke Street in East Greenwich. When asked about the accident, Greene replied that he was traveling home from his girlfriend’s home in West Warwick when a person jumped out into the road.
While speaking with the suspect, officers detected signs of intoxication. When asked if he had been drinking that evening, Greene allegedly stated that he had five beers, which was normal for him when he drinks. Greene then consented to take a series of sobriety tests.
Based upon Greene’s performance during testing, it was concluded that Greene was impaired and unfit to operate a motor vehicle safely. He was taken into custody and transported to police headquarters, where he later refused to take a breathalyzer test.
The pedestrian was transported to Rhode Island Hospital as a precautionary measure, and a statement was taken from the victim and another eyewitness. Her injuries were reportedly minor.
Greene was charged with driving under the influence first offense and refusal to submit to a chemical test and provided with a court summons to appear. He was later released to a sober adult.
