A 13-year-old boy told deputies he was scared for his life as he rode in a pickup with his father, who was charged with driving drunk Thursday night on Interstate 75.

Michael Guggino, 50, of Pembroke Pines, faces misdemeanor charges of DUI and refusal to submit to a breath test, the Collier County Sheriff's Office reported.

The report states Guggino's son called 911 about 8 p.m. as his father drove west on Alligator Alley. He said his father was driving all over the road and that they almost crashed into a guardrail, the report states. Guggino and his son were the only passengers in a Ford F-150.

When deputies stopped the pickup and opened the driver's door, Guggino appeared as though he was going to shift the truck into drive, they said. He then was pulled out of the vehicle, the arrest report states.

Guggino was slurring his speech, unsteady on his feet and kept asking what was going to happen, according to the report.

His son was crying and told deputies they were supposed to go to football practice in Pembroke Pines about 6 p.m. when his father kept driving. He said he begged his father to stop before calling authorities.

The state Department of Children and Families is investigating the case, the report states.

Guggino was taken to the Naples jail and released the next day after posting a $2,000 bond.
