Man arrested on alleged DUI

Oct. 29, 2012 — After being involved in a single-vehicle accident, a 22-year-old Lake Almanor man was arrested for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol.

According to the California Highway Patrol (CHP), at 11:02 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 27 Austin G. Hardig was driving his 2001 Dodge pickup eastbound on county road A-21, west of Greenwood in the Westwood area.

The CHP said, possibly due to his alleged level of intoxication, Hardig allowed his vehicle to drift off the right roadway edge and onto the shoulder.

The vehicle struck a pine tree and rotated clockwise. Hardig sustained moderate injuries and refused medical aid at the scene. However, he was transported to Banner Lassen Medical Center for evaluation. After he was medically cleared, Hardig was booked into the Lassen County Jail.

The accident remains under investigation.

In Lassen, one is guilty until proven innocent - that is how the Secret Freemasons want it, the more people on parole the more control they have over them and the community. Don't believe me? Just look at the turmoil in the Lassen Parole Dept.

...Just look at the turmoil in the Lassen Parole Dept.

This county is so dirty. There needs to be an investigation by the AG/DOJ or even the FBI into the good ol' boy local government network.

Truth Sayer, What gives you ANY indication that this story is in ANY way connected to people on parole? Because he was driving under the influence?
