An Elyria man was arrested for his seventh OVI on Saturday in Westlake.
According to a release from Westlake Police , at around 10 a.m. on March 21, an officer stopped a car in the parking lot of the Sonesta Suites on Clemens Road for a license violation. Police said that the driver, John Leslie Francisco, 46, of Elyria, had a suspended license due to prior traffic violations without insurance.
According to the release, Francisco appeared intoxicated and was unable to remove his ID from his wallet, so he handed his entire wallet to the officer. Francisco told police that he had been drinking eight hours before he was pulled over, but police said he had slurred speech, bloodshot eyes and an odor of an alcoholic beverage. Francisco refused a field sobriety or breath test and was then arrested for OVI and driving under suspension.Due to his prior arrest, this violation was a felony. Francisco was held in jail until Monday when he waived his preliminary hearing, according to the release.‘We will miss her terribly’: Sports reporter, her 3 children and family dog found dead in house fireFentanyl found inside Barbies sold at discount store, police sayPerry firefighters respond to shed blazeDaughters seek answers in their mother’s unsolved murder 13 years later
