ST. CLOUD, Fla. - A deputy with the Orange County Sheriff's Office is accused of driving under the influence.
The St. Cloud Police Department released bodycamera video showing what happened when they reportedly pulled over Deputy John Guzman on Saturday.
In the video, police approach Guzman's gray Honda which is stopped near a gas station with the door open. Guzman is seen slumped over in the driver's seat with the car still in ‘drive.’
According to the charging affidavit, Guzman was hanging out of the driver's seat and that he was "asleep behind the wheel."
Police then ask Guzman to step out of the vehicle. He complies and sits on the curb, then stands up as police ask where he's coming from.
