Oftentimes, the job of a police officer is very difficult. However, sometimes it can be extremely simple.

That was the case Sunday in Pittsfield Township when a man drove drunk to the police station.

Pittsfield Township police arrested a 66-year-old Livonia man, who was determined to be drunk when he drove to the police station and asked to use the restroom Sunday afternoon.

In a statement released Sunday evening, police said the man walked into the Pittsfield Township Department of Public Safety, on Michigan Avenue near Platt Road, at 6:30 p.m. Sunday. The man said he was looking for a restroom.

A firefighter was the first person to make contact with the man and noticed he appeared to be intoxicated. Police determined the man drove to the building and was parked in the parking lot.

Police officers in the building were called in and performed sobriety tests on the man. He failed the tests and then submitted to a breathalyzer.

According to the statement, the man’s blood alcohol content was determined to be above Michigan’s .08 legal limit.

The man was taken to the Washtenaw County Jail, where he will be held until he’s sober.

Police are submitting the case to the Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office for charges of operating while intoxicated.
