JACKSON, WI (WTAQ) - A 69-year-old man faces his fourth drunk driving charge, after police caught him weaving on a lawn tractor in Jackson in southeast Wisconsin.

The incident happened on Sunday night.

Jackson Police Chief Jed Dolnick said one of his officers spotted the lawn tractor going on a sidewalk and then a street, before turning into a drug store parking lot.

At one point, a squad car’s video showed the man motioning for the officer to drive around him. A preliminary breath test recorded his blood alcohol level at 0.21, over two-and-a-half times the legal limit of 0.08.

The man was in the Washington County Jail at last word on a $1,200 bond.
