HARTLAND DWI BUST

From the pages of the Lockport US&J...

Nouman Bhatti, 35, 2825 Drum Road, Middleport, was charged Thursday with driving while intoxicated, driving with a suspended registration and driving without insurance. Deputies reportedly stopped Bhatti for speeding on Route 104. Bhatti reportedly had glassy eyes, slurred speech and smelled of alcohol. He reportedly told police he was heading home and did not realize he was speeding and that he’d had “just a few beers, but it was a while ago.” Bhatti allegedly failed several field sobriety tests and registered a 0.14 percent blood alcohol content. He is due Tuesday in Hartland Town Court.
