28-year-old Matthew Paul Walker was observed operating a vessel while sitting on the sundeck above the boat’s gunnel in Percy Priest Lake on the evening of July 5th. After officers noticed this, they initiated a stop, during which they found Walker reeked of alcohol, showing signs of intoxication. Officers then asked Walker if he had consumed alcohol, to which he then admitted that he had, but “not too many.” After performing poorly on sobriety tests, Walker was taken into custody for boating under the influence and an implied consent violation.
