From the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office – On November 2, 2019, at approximately 11:00 p.m. a Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office deputy conducted a traffic stop on an SUV near the intersection of Ernest Street and West Hale Street in Lake Charles for a traffic violation.
When the deputy spoke with the driver, Dillon S. Johnson, 26, 5532 Central Drive, Lake Charles, he detected an odor of alcohol emitting from his breath along with glassy eyes. The deputy also observed Johnson to have a hard time maintaining his balance. While speaking with the deputy Johnson advised he had drank three alcoholic beverages.
