A veteran South Lake Tahoe police officer has been placed on administrative leave after being arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.
The Nevada Highway Patrol says Sgt. Jeff Reagan was off duty when he was stopped early the morning of April 16 in Carson City, Nev., by a trooper.
NHP spokesman Chuck Allen says preliminary tests indicate Reagan's blood alcohol content was about 0.12 percent—1 1/2 times the legal limit.
Reagan, who works in the detective division, also is the subject of an internal affairs investigation by Police Chief Terry Daniels.
In 2005, Reagan was charged with domestic battery after being accused of pushing his wife out the back door of their home in Minden. But the charge was later dropped.
