A DoorDash delivery driver in Kentucky is facing drug charges after he was allegedly found unconscious in a Burger King drive-thru.
Madisonville police responded around 1:30 a.m. Sunday for a wellness check was after a call about a black truck parked between the Burger King drive-thru windows on Chelsea Drive, 14 News reports.
The caller said they attempted to wake the driver, later identified as Christian Suttle, 27, by knocking on the window, but he did not respond.
When police arrived, they observed the Suttle moving the car from behind the building to a parking spot in front of the restaurant.
Suttle was reportedly found sweating profusely with dilated pupils. When questioned, he claimed he had fallen asleep while waiting for a DoorDash order. He admitted to smoking methamphetamine a few hours before the incident.
A search of Suttle's vehicle revealed a glass smoking pipe and a baggie containing suspected methamphetamine.
Suttle was arrested and booked into the Hopkins County Jail on charges of operating a motor vehicle under the influence, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.
A DoorDash spokesperson told The Independent in a statement, “We have zero tolerance for dashing under the influence. We’ve deactivated the Dasher involved and have reached out to local law enforcement to assist their investigation however possible.”
