Topic: La-Z-Boy from drunk driving case to be auctioned | |
---|---|
DULUTH, Minn. – A motorized La-Z-Boy used by a man who pleaded guilty to driving it drunk is going up for auction. But police said interested bidders need to keep it off the streets. The chair, powered by a lawnmower engine, comes equipped with a stereo, cup holders and lights.
Police in Proctor, in northern Minnesota, are putting the seized chair up for auction on eBay on Thursday. The proceeds will go to the police, state and the prosecuting attorney. But Chief Walter Wobig cautions that the chair isn't "street legal," so any buyer should stick to the living room — or at most a parade. The former owner, Dennis LeRoy Anderson, pleaded guilty this month to operating the chair while intoxicated. His family is also auctioning on eBay an autographed photo of him riding the La-Z-Boy to help with his fees. I soooooooooo want one |

I never under estimate the stupidity of people under the influence. It is sad how they don't get how badly someone can get hurt includeing themselves playing in traffic.

the seizure of this "chair" seems like a violation of lay-z-boy driving rights. Where is the ACLU on this?????
