A man identified as Josue Reyes is now in cuffs following a booze-fueled wreck in Harris County last week that landed him a felony charge, authorities say. Constable Mark Herman's Office has revealed that Reyes, allegedly hammered beyond twice the legal limit, caused a significant pileup on FM 1960 Road East late last Thursday evening, a deputy at the scene initiating an investigation which quickly tipped the scales against him.

According to details from Constable Mark Herman's Facebook page, Reyes failed the Standardized Field Sobriety Tests dished out by the attending officer, who stated the suspect demonstrated clear signs of profound impairment, subsequently recording a Blood Alcohol Count of 0.210 upon consent – a figure casting a shadow over Texas' legal driving limit. Reyes was found to bear the weight of not one, but two prior DWI convictions, further complicating the legal tangle now snaring him rigid.

The specter of past misdeeds seemed to haunt the accused as the constable's announcement conveyed, "Josue Reyes was arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail, charged with Felony Driving While Intoxicated-3rd Offense."
