It's almost surprising what police can turn up running random license plates. Sunday afternoon, cop on the northside plugged a plate into the computer. Guy in a white van at a stop sign turned out to be revoked, registration invalid. Got 54 year-old Randal Ronnenberg out of his van and even through the officer's stuffed up nose, he could tell Ronneberg had had a few. Blew a .197. Well good enough for a OWI. The fifth drunk driving arrest for Ronnenberg.
