33-year-old Bogdan Tkachuk was charged with driving under the influence after he was observed by police to be unable to maintain his speed and stay in his own lane and when tested, blew a 0.209 BAC, which is over twice the legal limit.
According to the affidavit, police responded to a call about a driver in a white sedan unable to maintain a consistent speed and stay in his own lane. Officers stopped Tkachuk when he pulled in at the Shell on Alfred Thun Road, as his car matched the description.
He had bloodshot, watery eyes and slurred speech. He was unsteady when he got out of the car and smelled like alcohol. Tkachuk failed the sobriety field tests administered by the officer. A breath test at the Montgomery County Jail showed his BAC to be 0.209 — over twice the legal limit for Tennessee drivers.
Bogdan Tkachuk was arrested and charged with driving under the influence. His bond was set at $500.
