Police Arrest Drunk Driver Who Careened Off Skyline Boulevard

Pacifica Police arrested a 21-year-old San Bruno motorist after he drove across an oncomng lane of traffic and off Skyline Boulevard allegedly while drunk Saturday morning. 

Police, along with medics and North Coast County Fire Authority units, responded to calls of a vehicle off the road north of Manor Drive at approximately 4:30a.m. Saturday morning, Pacifica Police Chief Jim Tasa said. Police located the vehicle about 30 ft. down the hillside from Skyline Boulevard.

Officers smelled alcohol on him and about the vehicle, however, and after conducting field sobriety tests placed him under arrest and took him to a detoxification facility, said Chief Tasa.
