Man accused of drunken lawnmower driving

A West Monroe man is free on bond after an arrest for driving while intoxicated on a lawnmower. Larry Minniefield, 48, got arrested on one count of driving while intoxicated and driving an unsafe vehicle, which was a lawnmower.

Deputies were working another complaint Friday night when they noticed Minniefield drive by on a John Deere lawnmower. A short time later, deputies noticed him drive by on the lawnmower again, and that he appeared to be intoxicated and driving in the middle of the road.


He was arrested and deputies returned the lawnmower to Minniefield's mother. Minniefield was booked into Ouachita Correctional Center and posted $650 bond.

This reminds me of my neighbor, he drives every day during the summer to his mothers down the street on his yellow lawnmower.

What would you do if you saw a guy driving a lawnmower down the middle of the road?
