Delaware State Police arrested 44-year-old Ian McIntyre, of Ocean View, Delaware, for a felony DUI and drug-related charges early Friday morning in Rehoboth Beach.
On December 8, 2023, at approximately 1:02 a.m., a trooper on patrol observed a white Chevrolet Express van parked for an extended period at a gas pump at Wawa, located at 30155 Veterans Way. The trooper stopped to check on the driver of the van who appeared to be asleep in the driver’s seat with the van running. After making contact with the driver, identified as Ian McIntyre, the trooper observed signs of impairment during their interaction and conducted Standardized Field Sobriety Tests. While tests were given, troopers observed a straw with a white powdery substance in plain view on the driver’s floorboard. After tests were completed, McIntyre was taken into custody for DUI.
