DOVER — On Friday, July 5, at 8:54 p.m., Mr. Elvis Suarez, 38, of Dover, was stopped in traffic on East McFarlan Street at the signal near the intersection of Mt. Hope Avenue facing west. His 2011 Dodge Ram was in the left-hand lane.

Mr. Rene Sanchez, 40, of Randolph, was traveling west on East McFarlan Street towards the intersection of Mt. Hope Avenue in the left-hand lane and struck Mr. Suarez’s vehicle from behind, causing minor damage.

Mr. Rene Sanchez complained of pain in his lower back but refused medical attention from the Dover Rescue Squad.

Mr. Sanchez was arrested for driving while intoxicated. Dover Police Officer Caraig Christopher determined that the motor vehicle accident was Mr. Sanchez’s fault. Bunky’s Towing towed and impounded his vehicle, a 2015 Jeep Patriot.

When Dover Police Officer Christopher questioned Mr. Sanchez, he observed his eyes were bloodshot, watery, and droopy. When Mr. Sanchez’s speech was slow, the officer detected an odor of alcoholic flavorings coming from his breath. The officer then conducted a number of field sobriety tests.

After the tests, Police Officer Christopher advised Mr. Sanchez he was being placed under arrest for driving while intoxicated. Mr. Sanchez was transported to the Rockaway Township Police Department where two Alcotests were performed, with a result of 0.14%. Mr. Sanchez was issued the following traffic summons:

  • Driving while intoxicated (39:4-50)
  • Careless driving (39:4-97)

Mr. Sanchez was returned to the Dover Police Department and then released to a responsible person after signing the John’s Law form.

A court appearance is mandatory and scheduled for July 15.

Editors Note: The court’s rules require us to include a statement that states: The charges outlined in this publication are merely accusations, and the defendant and/or defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
