According to police, they watched as the driver “attempted to park before becoming stuck in a snowbank.”
“When officers approached the vehicle to assist, they quickly noted signs that the driver was impaired,” police said in a Monday release.
“The driver was arrested and walked into the station without incident.”
Police note the 31-year-old man is now facing impaired driving charges and is scheduled to appear in court at a later date.
They add they also arrested three other drivers for impaired driving during that same overnight shift.
