Man To Appear In Court Friday

POSTED: 10:28 am EDT July 23, 2008

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Rhode Island state police said they arrested a man 
whose blood alcohol level was .491, more than six times the legal limit.

They believe it's the highest level ever recorded in Rhode Island for 
someone who wasn't dead.

The man was arrested early Tuesday morning after he drove his car into a 
highway message board on Interstate 95 in Providence. Troopers had to
carry 
him to the breakdown lane before taking him back to their barracks.

A trooper said a Breathalyzer test registered blood alcohol readings of 
..489 followed by .491.

The man was released from custody after promising to appear at a court 
hearing Friday.

More criminal coddling of drunk drivers.  This monster is a killer and
bail 
should have been set at $500,000.
