TigerNet shared the details of the incident report on Wednesday morning:
“On June 6th at approximately 0139 hours, I Officer Venning observed a Black Audio fail to use its turning signal as it turned right onto Highway 93 from College Avenue. It should be noted that the vehicle was leaving an area of several bars at a time when bars are usually closing. As I watched the vehicle pass by I noticed that the driver had a fixed blank glassy glaze about his face and had the appearance of someone who may be under the influence. I began to follow the vehicle and observed as it drifted left several times as well as impede upon the boarded dotted line to its left. I initiated a traffic stop on this vehicle as we pulled from Highway 93 into the parking lot of the Tiger Walk Apartments and made contact with the driver (Ammon Michael Lakip/Student).”
Lakip is likely to be kicked off the team, after being a semi-finalist for the Lou Groza Award last season.
