Minnesota Town Auctions Off “DWI Chair.”
The police department of Proctor, Minnesota is making its third attempt to auction off a vehicle forfeited after a DWI charge was given to the driver.
It wasn’t a car that got Dennis Leroy Anderson charged with a DWI, but rather a motorized chair.
With a National Hot Rod Association sticker on the head and a small steering device installed in the middle, you can debate whether or not this La-Z-Boy is road ready. But definitely not under the command of an intoxicated driver.
The Proctor, MN resident plead guilty to the charge in August of 2008 and forfeited the chair to the Proctor Police Department. After the case drew national attention, the PPD made 2 subsequent attempts to auction the chair off on E-Bay.
Neither attempt worked out, and they are apparently hoping the third time is a charm.
While the chair may make for a funny anecdote, being charged with a DWI is no laughing matter. An experienced attorney can make all the difference in your case. If you have been charged with a DWI or DUI in Virginia, contact The Parrish Law Firm for a free initial case consultation.
