A Northern Michigan man was arrested recently for operating his riding lawn mower, or lawn tractor, while drunk. He was arrested after he fell off of his motorized lawn mower and injured himself. Thankfully, no shrubs or other people were injured.

 Witnesses reported the man after they saw him driving in circles in the middle of an intersection while appearing to be unconscious. He apparently regained both consciousness and control of the lawn tractor before losing consciousness again. The second loss of consciousness resulted in him falling off of the lawn tractor. The riding mower continued until it hit a tree.

 The man was arrested on chrages of driving while intoxicated and driving with a suspended license. He has been released from jail on bail of $5,000. He will next appear in court on July 29th. This was his third DWI arrest.
