AFFIDAVIT of PROBABLE CAUSE
On Friday, May 22, 2015, ! was conducting speed enforcement at 11408 Anthony Highway, which is a properly pasted 35 mph
zone, using the ENRADD speed timing device with serial number 539 and certified date of 05/07/2015. Timing was done in a
stationary mode.
‘At approximately 2144 hours | observed a black GMC Yukon, bearing PA registration HODGEVR, traveling north bound passing
through the ENRADD speed timing device. The ENRADD display head indicated the vehicle to be traveling at 51 mb
Upon catching up to the vehicle I saw it eos the canter line and make jerking movements to return to the lane of travel while
negotiating a right curve: | activated my emergency lights and the vehicle continued on crossing the center line again while
negotiating the ie curve, while an oncoming vehicle had to swerve to the shoulder. Vehicle then pulled across the road
appearing fo pul into the driveway, instead pulled onto the grassy area along the west shoulder. Vehicle came to a stop with the
front passenger corner sticking out into the road. | saw the driver door open as | exited my patrol car. ! approached the vehicle
finding the operator fumbling with his wallet in an attempt to retrieve his drivers license. The operator was identified as Billy
Hodge Jr. | asked him where he was coming from and he reluctantly told me he had just left the American Legion in
Waynesboro, PA where he had consumed 4-5 beers. | could smell a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from his
breath and noticed he had slurred speech and red glassy eyes. | requested Hodge to exit the vehicle to perform a series of field
sobrity tests.
‘As Hodge exited the vehicle | saw that he stumbled backwards into the open driver door. Hodge then watked to the rear of is
Vehicle as requested. ! noticed that Hodge swayed while standing sill, Hodge indicated he did not have any injuries that would
prevent him from completing any belance/coortination tests.
| requested Hodge fo stand with his right foot infront of his lat foot and keep his hands down to his sidos while |
‘explained/demonstrated the walk and turn test | saw that Hodge could not maintain this position and took a normal stance. |
‘explained/demonstrated the test several mes due to Hodge stating he could not remember everything | told him or did not
understand how to perform the test. Once Hodge confirmed he understood the test | told him to being and saw that he took
‘normal sized stops, raised his arms, swayed, side/crossed stepped.
‘The next test was the one log stand. Hodge again flied to maintain the starting position while | explained and demonstrated the
test. Hodge stated he understood how to perform the test and began when instructed. He raised his right foot for a couple
‘seconds then cropped i to the ground. | told him to keep going until | tokd him fo stop and he told me that he could not do the
test.
| administered the pre
iminary breath test to Hodge with a result greater than 08%,
{old Hodge he was under arrest for driving under the influence, placing him into custody and into the rear of my patrol car.
| transported Hodge to the Waynesboro Hospital fora legal blood draw and upon our arrival | took him into room 2 as instructed
by hospital staff. read Hodge the DL-26 form verbatim and he agreed to the testing of his blood. Blood draw was taken from
Hodge's right hand due to his refusal o have blood drawn from his left arm and the phlebotomist could not find a vein in his right
arm. Vials used for the blood craw had an expiration of 10/2015.
‘Once compisted at the hospital | transported Hodge back to my station were | completed processing him, to
