Rooster 1, drunk tourist 0: Man tries to run down rooster, crashes golf cart instead

A New Jersey man was jailed on suspicion of driving drunk after police said he tried to run over a Key West rooster but instead crashed the golf cart he was operating.

Daniel H. Jones, 34, of Cinnaminson, N.J., had a blood-alcohol content of 0.25, more than three times the legal limit, when he was arrested March 3, according to the police report.

Jones was driving a golf cart erratically about 6:15 p.m. at Whitehead and Petronia streets in the Bahama Village neighborhood and intentionally swerved in the direction of a rooster, according to a witness.

“He was adamant about trying to hit the rooster,” said Vincent Vurro of Key West, who called 911.
