Police: Virginia man busted for 2 DUIs in 9 hours

(The AEGIS Alliance) – A Virginia man was arrested twice this week on 2 separate DUIs that were only 9 hours apart, according to police.

38-year-old Travis Baker was first arrested for DUI at about 11:57 p.m. on Monday in Stafford County that’s around 50 miles southwest of Washington, D.C., the county sheriff’s department stated in an announcement. 

Cops booked him into jail that night on driving under the influence charges, possession of a controlled substance, and driving with a suspended license. He made bail and was released at 7:15 a.m. on Tuesday.

Just 90 minutes later at 8:45 a.m., an officer responded to a call about a box truck that crashed in the woods in a rural part of the county, according to the sheriff’s department. The officer discovered Baker in the driver’s seat and found that he was under the influence of narcotics.

While Baker was booked into jail again, the officer noticed the man in his custody had just got out of jail on a similar charge.

For the second incident, Baker was charged with driving under the influence-2nd offense, possession of a controlled substance, driving with a suspended license, and reckless driving.

Baker is now locked up without bond at the Rappahannock Regional Jail.
