Teens Freeze to Avoid Arrest for DUI
It's hardly news that underage teenagers have drinking parties, unfortunately. But this one has a bit of a twist.
Sheriff's deputies in Florence, Wisconsin were alerted to an underage drinking party. When they arrived, a vehicle was leaving the alleged party. When a deputy followed the vehicle, he found it in a ditch less than a mile down the road, with the occupants out of sight in the nearby woods.
Several more vehicles coming from the direction of the party, and officers duly stopped each vehicle. One of the vehicles, however, sped off after being ordered to stop, leading the deputies on a high-speed chase for a few minutes before slamming into a snow bank in a hay field.
Five of the teens either surrendered or were captured shortly after, though deputies continued searching for a while to round up all eight teens that had spilled from the car. Eventually, the deputies left. Without shoes on, three of the teens stayed all night in the unheated vehicle after hiding out somewhere in the hay field.
The three suffered frostbite and were taken to a local hospital, where officers did finally catch up to them. A total of seven minors in possession of alcohol citations were issued to the partygoers.
