Officers noticed him in the parking lot of the 7/11 nearby, showing signs of impairment as he admitted to having three shots about 2 hours before driving to the gas station. He consented to sobriety tests and performed poorly.

After being informed of implied consent, he agreed to provide a blood sample. Smith was taken into custody for simple possession, driving under the influence, and possession of a handgun while being under the influence.
