Police say a 21-year-old Menomonee Falls man appeared intoxicated when they arrived on the scene of a tree vs. car accident in the 2100 block of East Kensington Boulevard on Friday night.

The man failed subsequent field sobriety tests and a Breathalyzer registered at .19 blood alcohol content.

It’s his first drunken driving offense.

Then on Sunday night, police say a 28-year-old Milwaukee man rear-ended a parked car before police pulled him over for driving without his headlights on in the 4200 block of North Murray Avenue.
