Dumb Criminals: DUI Suspect Takes Selfie After Getting Arrested

Police say an Iowa City man took a "selfie" after being detained for drunken driving early Sunday.

James Jay Dunham, 26, of 116 Friendship St., was arrested for first-offense drunken driving at 1:57 a.m. at the intersection of Iowa Avenue and Gilbert Street.

According to a police report, Dunham snapped a photo of himself while being held in the OWI room, telling an officer he "just wanted to let his family know he was OK."

Dunham, whose blood alcohol content was .084, admitted to drinking a bottle of wine that day and one drink that night. He was wearing three bar wrist bands and had slurred speech, bloodshot eyes and unsteady balance, according to the report.
