Drunken driving? - A 58-year-old man was taken to the hospital about 11 a.m. May 1 to have blood drawn to determine if he was drunk or on drugs after his car collided with another near 67th and Nicollet. A 2008 Toyota that the man's car hit from behind spun through a hedge and onto the Academy of Holy Angels Academy lawn. The 85-year-old woman driving the Toyota did not require medical attention.
