OSP Arrested GP Man for DUII after He Caused Weekend Crash on Interstate 5
The Oregon State Police arrested a Grants Pass man for impaired driving after he caused a weekend crash on Interstate 5 just east of the city.
OSP reports troopers and emergency personnel responded to the two-vehicle wreck near milepost 54 of I-5 on Sunday at 5:13 p.m..
Troopers said an investigation indicated 22-year-old Ulises Leonel Saldivar was driving a Ford Ranger pickup when he failed to maintain his lane and sideswiped a semi-truck trailer driven by a 38-year-old Walnut Creek, California, man. No one was hurt and the damaged Ford was towed into Grants Pass.
According to OSP, Saldivar displayed signs of impairment and was transported to the Grants Pass Sobering Center where he provided a breath sample that was well over twice the legal driving limit.
Saldivar was lodged at the Sobering Center for Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants, Reckless Driving and Driving While Suspended. His vehicle was impounded because it was used to commit a crime.
