The driver of the pickup truck was identified as Cesar Arevalo from Chicago, Illinois. In his report, Deputy Geiger states noticing impairment with the driving behavior and the behavior of Arevalo. When asked to do the field sobriety test, Mr. Arevalo refused all tests.
A search warrant for blood was applied and granted, giving an idea of the intoxication levels of the driver. Arevalo had over three times the legal limit (.08%) blood alcohol concentration at .273%.

They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
