Sheriffs deputies were led on a low-speed chase after a horse-drawn buggy was reported on the wrong side of the road in Orwell, Ohio.
An Amish man in Ohio was the subject of a low-speed police chase on May 14 when he was asleep while operating a horse and buggy.
Ashtabula Sheriff's Deputy Mike Talbert attempted to stop the buggy at around 2:43 a.m. in Orwell, Ohio, but was unsuccessful and told other officers that the driver of the horse and buggy looked like he was asleep, according to Fox 8.
"There is a Bud Light can sitting in there and he’s passed clean out," Talbert says. "We got a drunk Amish guy passed out in a buggy."
"He just turned eastbound on Bogue and I yelled at the guy when he rode by," Talbert said. "There is a Bud Light can sitting in the d**n buggy and I hit the side of the buggy and hollered at the guy. He’s passed clean out. He’s slumped over."
