Foley Police Officer Jack Nelson finishes in top five for DUI arrests in Alabama

Posted

FOLEY, Ala. - The Foley Police Department reports that Officer Jack Nelson finished tied for third place in the state of Alabama for driving under the influence arrests in 2010, and the department as a whole finished with a total of 305 arrests for the crime.

The DUI Enforcement Unit was established in Foley in 2008.

"Nelson has consistently ranked in the top 10 every year since the unit was established," Lt. Thurston Bullock stated in a press release. "This year is no different. He tied for third place with a Huntsville officer and accounted for more than one out of three of the arrests made within the Department. His efforts, along with the combined teamwork of all the officers, has placed the Foley Police Department in sixth place among much larger municipal agencies with 305 total arrests for 2010."

The Foley PD was the only police department from Baldwin County to crack the top 10.
