Cops had to drag drunk driver out of car
Michael Thomas Sacobie-Munn, 36, of Fredericton, passed out at wheel in New Maryland
A Fredericton man kicked and spat at Mounties as they physically dragged him from a vehicle after he was found passed out at the wheel, court heard Tuesday.
Michael Thomas Sacobie-Munn, 36, of Crerar Court, pleaded guilty in Fredericton provincial court Tuesday to charges of impaired driving and resisting police officers in the execution of their duties, and the matter proceeded directly to sentencing.
Crown prosecutor Daniel Standing said a witness called police at about 7:30 a.m. the morning of Sept. 3 to report a motorist driving erratically just outside of Fredericton.
“The vehicle was crossing the yellow line back and forth,” according to the witness, he said, and she told police the suspect car turned into a residential subdivision in New Maryland.
