Upon being woken, Croce attempted to move his vehicle, almost colliding with a police vehicle. After a brief roadside investigation, Croce was taken into custody for suspicion of driving under the influence. After being processed and released, Croce then pointed a f irearm at Berlin Police Officers. Croce was released with a citation to appear in Washington District Court on May 1, to answer to the charges of Driving While Intoxicated/Wreckless Endangerment.
