A Coralville man was arrested for public intoxication after being discovered laying on the sidewalk outside Hobby Lobby Saturday night.

Officers were called to the business just before 9 pm on reports of a man laying on the sidewalk outside the store on 8th street. 63-year-old Wesley Snow of 9th Street was allegedly discovered under a blanket with numerous liquor bottles all around him. His pants were reportedly pulled down and showed numerous signs of intoxication, including the strong odor of ingested alcohol, slurred speech, and an inability to stand up on his own.

A PBT showed Snow’s blood alcohol level at .284 percent on a weak breath. He was then transported to the hospital for treatment.

Snow was charged with public intoxication, a simple misdemeanor.
