Drunk and passed out at the wheel

Allow me to preface this by saying that it’s nowhere near as serious or as heartfelt as Dan’s post below on the passing of Father Neuhaus. Just couldn’t let it pass without note. Hilarious:

A Sanborn man was charged with driving while intoxicated after he was reportedly found passed out at the wheel of his car.

A neighbor called 911 about 5:50 a.m. to report Jeffrey R. Henderson, 21, 3084 Shenk Road, Sanborn had passed out behind the wheel of his parked car, with the engine running, on Shenk Road.

The neighbor said there was smoke coming from the hood, and it looked like the car was about to catch fire.

The neighbor said she it took some effort to wake Henderson up, and when she woke up she told him his car was about to blow up.

Henderson reportedly said, “All right,” and got out of the car.

Fire personnel and deputies responded to the scene and interviewed Henderson, who had a bloody lip.

When they asked Henderson what happened, he allegedly said, “My (expletive) car almost blew up, man. I could have (expletive) died.”
