A car crash that occurred in the middle of the afternoon on Tuesday at a busy Missoula intersection may have been the result of drunk driving.

The Missoula County Attorney’s Office was happy to report a low amount of crime this week.

Crime numbers were close to a record low this week in Missoula.

A Missoula woman was picked up on Saturday after a police officer noticed some erratic driving.

"Officers were called to the 4800 block of North Reserve Street where a complainant had observed a lone male seated in a vehicle that was running and he appeared to be passed out," said Police Public Information Officer Travis Welsh

Law enforcement is out in force this week to help to try to prevent drunk driving accidents during the Labor Day weekend.

Eye-witnesses say the man nearly hit other vehicles and pedestrians, before he was pulled over.
