DUI crash
January 5, 2010, 7:57 PM
Dispatchers reported a grey 2007 Pontiac struck a stoplight at the corner of Harlem and 26th and was fleeing the scene. A witness told police the offending car drove recklessly around his vehicle, cut him off, hit the light and attempted to flee, but the crash left the Pontiac undrivable. Riverside police brought back the offending driver after catching him fleeing westward on foot on 26th St. Juan R. Sustaita, 28, of Cicero, reportedly smelled of alcohol; police recovered 8.9 grams of marijuana from his coat pocket. His blood alcohol level was measured at .264, more than triple the legal threshold for driving under the influence. Police charged him with DUI, DUI over .08, damage to city property and leaving the scene of a crash.
