State police reported a black Nissan Altima was northbound on Highway 11 about four miles south of Pendleton at about 4:40 p.m., when the driver lost control while passing another vehicle. The Nissan left the road, drove across a ditch and into a field. The driver came back to the highway, where the car slid down an embankment. Trooper Ryan Sharp contacted the driver, who, according to state police, “was urinating on the side of the road.” Francisco Javier Palacios Garcia, 23, of 513 N.E. Eighth Ave., Apt. B-1, Milton-Freewater, also showed other signs of intoxications. Palacios Garcia consented to sobriety tests, and afterward Sharp arrested him for driving under the influence of intoxicants and reckless driving and booked him into the Umatilla County Jail, Pendleton. •Milton-Freewater police arrested Beverly Jean Evans, 70, of 648 College St., Milton-Freewater, for DUI, reckless driving, and hit and run (failure to perform duties of a driver).
