36-year-old Kamanzi Emmanuel was caught driving under the influence after a vehicle wreck on August 18th. When officers arrived on the scene of the wreck, they discovered that Emmanuel did not have a driver’s license. The other parties also informed officers that Emmanuel was swerving into oncoming lanes, which caused the crash. While looking around the scene, officers noticed an open Modelo beer bottle in the center console of the vehicle Emmanuel was driving. Officers then spoke with Emmanuel, who stated that the other vehicles were the ones crossing into his lane.
When asked, he said the Modelo alcohol was from the night before. While officers spoke with Emmanuel, they noticed he was unable to maintain his balance, had watery eyes, and had a strong odor of alcohol on his breath. When asked to perform sobriety tests, he agreed. However, he was unable to follow directions and performed poorly on the other tests. Due to the smell of alcohol and the performance of sobriety tests, officers determined Emmanuel to be intoxicated. Emmanuel was then taken into custody for driving under the influence, having no driver’s license, and refusing implied consent.
Kamanzi Emmanuel of Village Green Drive in Nashville, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on August 18th, charged with DUI, no driver license and implied consent. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $3,000, and the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office gave him pre-trial release from their facility.
