Shortly before midnight, Rainer Lee Bodine,32, was driving northbound near the shoreline toward Pier Avenue with three passengers when he was pulled over for driving 38 mph in a 15 mph zone. Bodine admitted to drinking about five beers in two and a half hours.
In side a side door compartment, a park ranger found Bodine’s service revolver. On the floorboard of the back seat, the ranger found several empty beer bottles.
A blood test showed Bodine had a blood alcohol level of .12. The legal limit to drive is .08.
Following his arrest, Bodine was released to a family member. He was not booked into the county jail.
Bodine plans to plead no contest to misdemeanor DUI charges next week.
