Man Arrested After Passing Out In McDonald’s Drive-Thru

    New Hartford Police responded to the drive-thru of the McDonald’s restaurant on Oneida Street for an unresponsive male in a vehicle.  Once on the scene Patrolman James M. Hyatt came upon the male who was sleeping in the front seat of the vehicle.  Patrolman Hyatt states that the man had ordered food from the drive-thru and while driving up to the window to pick up the food the male put the vehicle in park and fell asleep at the wheel while the vehicle was still running. 

    The driver, Todd M. Odell of Chadwicks, became responsive upon verbal direction by Patrolman Hyatt.  Odell was subsequently arrested for driving while intoxicated after failing field sobriety tests.  Odell was transported to the New Hartford Police Station, released on an appearance ticket, and is scheduled to return to the Town of New Hartford Court on a later date.
