A motorist who reportedly followed people home and then parked in their driveway, has been charged with a felony of driving under an intoxicating substance and a misdemeanor.
Cornelious Antonio Holloway, 57, of Oklahoma City, was formally charged Oct. 13 in Lincoln County District Court with driving while under the influence of intoxicating substance, second and subsequent offense.
He also faces a misdemeanor of unlawful possession of marijuana.
Special Judge Emily Mueller set Holloway’s bond at $3,000. She scheduled his initial appearance for 1:30 p.m. Nov. 18.
Holloway in count 1 is accused on Oct. 1 of driving a GMC truck near 100426 S. 3294 Road in Lincoln County when he was the under the influence of marijuana, an intoxicating substance that rendered him incapable of safely driving a motor vehicle.
In the misdemeanor, he is charged with unlawful possession of marijuana, a controlled dangerous substance.
The state prosecutor filing the charge provided supplemental information showing that Holloway on March 11, 2021, in Oklahoma County District Court was convicted of misdemeanor driving while under the influence of intoxicating liquor.
Lincoln County Deputy Sheriff Kelly Coleman, in a probable cause affidavit, reports he was dispatched to 100426 S. 3294 Road in Wellston on Oct. 1.
The property owner had called to report a male had followed them home and, parked in their driveway, got out of his truck and had taken his pants and shirt off.
The deputy was notified the driver had gotten back in his truck and was just sitting there staring at the rearview mirror, the affidavit further notes.
About 20 minutes later as Coleman was arriving in the area, the truck was no longer in the driveway but apparently driving towards him. He was able to get the truck stopped and approached the driver, identified as Holloway.
He told the deputy he did have a driver’s license, but couldn’t produce one for Coleman. When Coleman asked if he had anything illegal in his vehicle, Holloway responded, “just my weed.”
Holloway finally retrieved his wallet from his front pocket and handed the deputy his driver’s license. He acknowledged he was smoking marijuana when the deputy stopped him.
Coleman advised him that on the back of his marijuana card it states the card holder is not to use marijuana at least eight hours before driving.
