CLAWSON, Mich., Sept. 30 (UPI) -- Police in Michigan said they arrested a man who was allegedly drunk when he drove an intoxicated woman to the police station for questioning.

Investigators said the 35-year-old Clawson woman told police she was too drunk to be interviewed following a Sunday domestic incident between her and her husband and she told an officer who called Monday morning that she was still too drunk to come in, The Macomb Daily of Mount Clemens, Mich., reported Thursday.

However, Clawson Police Lt. Scott Sarvello said the woman showed up about 15 minutes later and said she received a ride from a neighbor.

The driver, Donald Chamberlain, 40, of Clawson, was stopped a short distance from the police station by an officer who said the vehicle had a cracked windshield. Chamberlain failed field sobriety tests and his blood alcohol content was measured at 0.13, more than the 0.08 legal limit.

Chamberlain was arrested and released on a personal bond following his arraignment on a drunken driving charge. He is due back in court Nov. 3.
