Cedar Rapids man charged with OWI

A Cedar Rapids man has been accused of driving under the influence.

Andrew Burdick, 21, 702 40th St. S.E., was charged Wednesday with first-offense OWI.

According to a Johnson County Sheriff’s Office complaint, a law-enforcement official made a traffic stop on the vehicle because of suspicion of OWI after he reportedly noticed Burdick driving all over the roadway.

Burdick had red, watery eyes, somewhat slurred speech, and smelled heavily of alcohol.

He refused a preliminary breath test and registered a .103 BAC on the DataMaster.

First-offense OWI is a serious misdemeanor.
