A Cincinnati police officer is accused of driving while drunk over the weekend.
The Boone County Sheriff's Department said a deputy found a car stopped on KY 18 just before 1 a.m. Saturday.
The deputy wrote in his report that when he approached the driver, Bryan Gabel, he could smell alcohol on his breath. Gabel told the deputy he ran out of gas.
In the report, the deputy stated that he gave Gabel six field sobriety tests and Gabel failed them all.
Gabel is charged with one count of driving while intoxicated.
Gabel was demoted and suspended in 2007 after an incident in which two officers spents weeks sitting in a substation playing video games instead of walking their beats. Gabel was one of five supervisors disciplined by Police Chief Tom Streicher for knowing about the situation and not putting a stop to it.
