JEFFERSON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- West Virginia State Police say a man was arrested Thursday evening for a 12th time, accused of drunk driving.

Thomas Lewis was charged with a felony third offense driving under the influence.

State Troopers say they pulled Lewis over on Route 60 in Jefferson because he was driving with a fake inspection sticker on his car. That's when Troopers say Lewis admitted to drinking six alcoholic beverages. They say Lewis refused a breathalyzer test.

Lewis is being held at the South Central Regional Jail.

I am pretty sure this guy was at the Foodland on Spring STreet today. Look just like him. Never did see anybody with him, wondering if they were waiting in the car for him. Doubtful

Ok, it doesn't matter if they "take away his license".....he obviously doesn't have any regard for the law so whether he had that little card in is pocket or not, he is still going to drive drunk! period! as long as he is not in jail.... he will do it again, no question about it. our legal system is what needs to keep him off the streets by keeping him in jail! there is no other solution and no other argument needed.... period!

wow! maybe if they keep slapping him on the hands he will kill someone. The sad thing is it won't make any difference if they revoke his license. He will get behind a wheel anyway. It's not a matter of IF he kills an innocent person or persons ..it's when.
