“I detected a very strong odor of alcoholic beverage coming from the cabin of the vehicle,” the reporting officer wrote. “Elarbee’s eyes were very red and watery, and his pupils were dilated.”

The officer noticed Elarbee was wearing a colored paper wristband, which are commonly used by local bars in the Tallahassee area.

“Elarbee stated he was coming from Friday’s, where he was attending a work party,” the report read. “Elarbee said he had one beer at the party.”

When the officer asked for his license, registration and proof of insurance, Elarbee struggled to find his registration, which the officer explained Elarbee passed over many times.

Elarbee “immediately stumbled” when exiting his vehicle. He failed the sobriety field tests horizontal gaze nystagmus, walk and turn, and one leg stand.

Elarbee was then placed under arrest. He blew a 0.161g of alcohol per 210L of breath during the first breath test and 0.157g during the second.
