A Greencastle police officer was arrested Thursday and accused of drunk driving, a release from the Hendricks County Sheriff's Office said.

Randolph L. Seipel, 49, who was traveling in a vehicle on US 40 in Plainfield Thursday, was stopped for speeding about 9:40 p.m.

Once Hendricks County Sheriff’s Deputies had Seipel's vehicle pulled over, they tested him for impairment and found he had a breath alcohol content of 0.20, or about 2 ½ times the legal threshold for intoxication in Indiana.

Seipel was taken to the Hendricks County Jail where he was later released on bond.

No injuries were reported.

Greencastle Police Chief Tom Sutherland told FOX59 he is working with the mayor and city attorney regarding discipline and the officer’s status within the department.
