Drunk Driver Transporting Keg On Stolen Golf Cart Crashes Into Cop Car

[matcom]

<snip>

A man who was allegedly driving drunk — and transporting an untapped keg — crashed a stolen golf cart into a public safety vehicle at Oregon State University on Saturday night.

The crash happened at 7:30 p.m., shortly after the football team’s loss to Stanford.

Ted Wayne Cersovski, 28, of 28388 Cox Butte Road in Junction City, was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of intoxicants, unlawful use of a motor vehicle and two counts of reckless endangering.

He was cited and released at the Benton County Jail.

The golf cart belonged to the OSU golf team, and Cersovski said he paid $20 to “a college guy” for it.

He could be charged with more violations for the keg, which had no paperwork, according to Oregon State Police and OSU Department of Public Safety logs.

The Oregon Liquor Control Commission will contact Cersovski next week, the logs state.

OSU’s Department of Public Safety was dispatched to a report of a golf cart on lawns near 26th Street and Campus Way. An officer followed the vehicle, and turned on its lights to get it to pull over.

After ordering the driver to stop four times and getting no compliance, the public safety officer positioned his vehicle in front of the golf cart and stopped about 20 feet in front of it.

The golf cart hit the side of the car at about 5 mph, and the driver was taken into custody after a brief struggle.

1. hmm...

the other day someone asked what a DU Lounge meetup would look like. My guess is that if you read this story, add 30+ more drunk people and less clothing to the mix, then you would have a highly successful lounge meetup.

11. No one said they bought it with Tax Money

I checked the Oregon State website and it appears there is an organization called the Beaver Athletic Student Fund, or BASF. People who want basketball tickets to Beavers games, or want to reserve seats in the football stadium, or (horrors!) want to fund athletic scholarships, donate to BASF--which, among other things, buys "essential equipment."

I dunno, but a golf cart sounds like essential equipment for a golf team. They can haul equipment around on it, the coach can drive it all over the links to mentor golfers on each hole, the groundskeepers can use it to maintain the course, they can paint the Oregon State logo on it and use it to recruit student-athletes...
