KANAWHA CITY, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- A late night trip to get some fast food from Taco Bell in the Kanawha City area of Charleston, W.Va., landed a Boone County man behind bars.

State troopers say Jonathan Ball was waiting in the drive-thru lane. When the vehicles ahead of Ball moved up, he sat still.

A trooper went to check on him and said he discovered Ball asleep at the wheel with a strong smell of alcohol coming from the car.

After Ball woke up, troopers say he failed a sobriety test and was arrested.

see now the cops are trying to gather data on passing gas to see if they can charge more people and taco bell is a great place to start
