Police Log: July 5, 2009 — Felony arrest

NORTH ELBA — A Lake Placid man was charged with felony driving while intoxicated Friday after a traffic stop.

Ray Brook-based State Police said Lance Larose was driving on Sentinal Avenue around 11:20 p.m. when troopers spotted him allegedly swerving onto the shoulder of the road.

After initiating a traffic stop, police allegedly found the 23-year-old man intoxicated and driving without a license.

He was charged with two felony DWI offenses and first-degree aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle.

Larose was also cited for a license-plate violation, failing to keep right and driving on the shoulder.

He will reappear in court at a later date to face the charges.
