JACKSON, Wisconsin (WXOW) -  A Jackson Wisconsin man was arrested for drunk driving a lawnmower. An officer spotted the 69-year-old cruising down a Jackson road on Sunday (5-27).

 Police dashcam video shows the man motioning for the cruiser to go around him.

The officer followed him into a Walgreens parking lot.

A preliminary breath test showed he had a blood alcohol level more than two times the legal limit for operating a motor vehicle.

The man told police he had no idea he couldn't drive a lawnmower in the street.

This is his fourth drunken driving charge.
