DUI Suspect Allegedly Uses Kidnap Story To Cover Crash

I was just perusing the net for articles on DUI related incidents in Oregon state and ran across this little gem over at the Koin 6 web site. A summarry follows:

SCAPPOOSE, Ore. -- Deputies say a drunken driver who wrecked his car tried to spin a story of kidnap before his arrest.

Harry Clifford Shearer was taken into custody early Wednesday morning on Rocky Point Road south of Scappoose.

Shearer allegedly wrecked his car and then called 911, claiming that he was held at gunpoint by a man who drove the car off the road. Officers from Multnomah and Columbia counties, Oregon State Police and the Portland Police Bureau searched for a suspect.

Shearer was arrested when it became obvious that he made up the story. He is charged with filing a false report, DUI and reckless driving.
