'Sleepy' driver charged with DWI in White Plains


The Journal News


WHITE PLAINS - Tapping on the window didn't work. Neither did opening the car door and tapping on his shoulder.


In the end, it took two cops to awaken 42-year-old Vladimir Ampuero so that he could be arrested on a drunk-driving charge after he was found asleep at the wheel early today....


Ampuero, of Greenwich, Conn., was found passed out in his 1993 Chrysler station wagon shortly before 3 a.m., with the car running and the headlights on, police said.


Once police managed to get him to a semblance of consciousness, the police report said, "he appeared confused and was unable to explain what he was doing there.''


Ampuero's eyes were bloodshot and glazed, his speech was slurred and he was unable to stand without falling, the report said.


He was taken to police headquarters, where he was arrested on misdemeanor charges of driving while intoxicated and aggravated unlicensed operation. Police said his license had been revoked in 1996 after he was convicted of drunk driving.


The report noted that Ampuero fell asleep several times while he was being processed. He was released several hours later on $250 bail and is due in City Court on Sept. 26.
