Video: Mary Strey Calls 911 On Herself For DUI
Published by MoonDog on November 4, 2009
Mary Strey of Granton, Wisconsin called 911 on her cell phone on October 24 to report that, “Somebody’s really drunk driving down Granton Road.”
The only problem was Strey was reporting herself as the drunk driver.
The emergency dispatcher, trying to determine the driver’s location, asked Strey if she was driving behind the drunk driver.
“No,” she replied, “I am them.”
To which the surprised dispatcher replied, “You am them?”
Strey told the dispatcher that she was calling because, “I don’t want to hurt anybody. I’m drunk.”
The dispatcher told Strey to pull over and put on her flashers. “You want to stop driving before you get in an accident,” he said.
The responding officer said Strey had slurred speech and smelled of alcohol. She told officers she’d had seven or eight brandy and Cokes at several bars in Neilsville, Wisconsin.
Her blood alcohol level was double the legal limit, the Associated Press reported. She was charged with misdemeanor drunken driving and is due back in court on December 10.
Strey’s cousin, David Strey, said he was “surprised” by what happened.
“That was a good thing,” he said of her pulling over. “It would have probably been cheaper if she’d backed off one step and not gotten in the car.”
Listen to the audio of the 911 call as Strey reports herself.
