Rough Night Out, Eh?

And in local news, a 50-year-old civil servant at Gyeongsangnam-do Provincial Hall was arrested in Changwon on charges of fleeing the scene after he hit two parked cars while driving drunk.

The best part, though, is that after he was caught, he not only refused to take a Breathalyzer test, but he also allegedly assaulted — twice! — a 32-year-old American English teacher who tried to stop him from drunk driving and turned him in.*
