DUI Suspect With .627 BAC Arrested In Iowa

An Iowa man has been arrested for driving drunk with a blood-alcohol content nearly eight times over the legal limit.

Police Chief Jim Warkentin told the  Iowa Citizen Press  that 24-year-old Justin A. Clark's blood-alcohol content of 0.627% was the highest he's ever heard of in his career, which spans more than two decades.

"It's just amazing," Warkentin said. "It's just amazing the person was conscious to be that high. Most people don't make it above 0.3, they end up passing out."
