NORTH OLMSTED -- Former Brook Park mayor Thomas Coyne (D) was found unresponsive, nearly naked and apparently intoxicated early this morning, North Olmsted Police say.
Shortly before 2 a.m., a North Olmsted resident called 911 and complained that a person was laying on his front lawn on Columbia Road, about a quarter mile south of Lorain Road, North Olmsted Police Captain Kevin Whalen said.
"Officers responded and found Mr. Coyne(D) with his pants down around his ankles, his shirt off and tucked under his head as a pillow and he smelled of alcohol," Whalen said. "There was no apparent injury or sign of foul play."
According to Whalen, Coyne(D) was unresponsive and was transported to Fairview General Hospital.
Police are awaiting test results which could explain Coyne's (D)condition, but it is not yet clear whether Coyne will be charged with a crime, Whalen said.
"It's not an unusual case for us on a weekend around here," he explained. "But what makes it unusual is the person involved."
In March, Coyne(D) was sentenced to three days in jail and two years of probation after he was convicted of driving drunk in Westlake.
i was going to ping to ask if you'd partied with this guy. sounds like a real LIVE WIRE... ; )
LOL! Thanks so much for ALL of your posts. Great humor.
I'm going to pray this man gets the help he needs.
"Don't cry for me. I'm already dead."
Nice but could have been improved with explosions.
I think you're closer to the truth than I was.
What the hell were you doing up at 11:18 pm? Were you teaching Ginger to play D3?
I had just finished my D3 playing for the night.
Were you teaching Ginger to play D3?
She's a little high strung for that. I'd come in and find her clinging to the ceiling and have to give her a kitty valium or something.
HAH! Beauty!! I may adopt that chant as my very own. Don't worry, Dubs, I'll send you royalties. Unfortunately they'll be in worthless Canaduh money.
There is a link to the video from the cop car on this page. He looks pretty well wasted. His BAC was .274.
With any luck, the rehab stint will wake him up. If not, he'll probably kill himself via the bottle.
