Officer Raab was headed to the airport to relieve the officer on-duty. While headed there, he heard a driving complaint from the dispatch center that a vehicle was swerving on the road, almost hit a guardrail, and kept turning its blinkers on and off. Even though he was out of his jurisdiction, Officer Raab kept an eye out.

Sure enough, he saw the vehicle and watched it fishtail and cross both lanes of traffic. It looks like oncoming traffic saw it too because people were braking hard and pulling to the side to get out of the driver’s way. He advised the Sheriff’s Office, but they didn’t have anyone in the area, so they asked him to make the stop.

Officer Raab stopped the vehicle, found the driver intoxicated. Grand Teton National Park rangers showed up to conduct a DUI investigation.

February 12, 2020, 11:43 a.m.
