Detective Tomas Rodriguez Arrested for DWI

Authorities said a veteran Kerrville police officer resigned in the wake of his Dec. 27 arrest by a fellow officer on a charge of driving while intoxicated.

Detective Tomas Rodriguez, who was employed with the agency for 24 years, resigned last Tuesday. Kerrville Police Department spokesman Paul Gonzales said Monday.

Rodriguez, who couldn't be reached for comment, was pulled over on Water Street at about 2:30 a.m. on Dec. 27 after another motorist reported he was driving erratically, Gonzales said.

Upon his arrest, Rodriguez was placed on unpaid administrative leave, Gonzales said.
