Man told police officers that all the items in his vehicle were his except for anything illegal

A Florida man pulled over for allegedly driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs told deputies that all the belongings in the vehicle were his, except for any illegal items.

Robert Eugene Pursley was pulled over in Mary Esther at around 2:45am on Feb. 15. After the DUI arrest, 54-year-old Pursley’s vehicle was inventoried before being towed, according to the arrest report.



Okaloosa County Sheriff’s deputies found a small baggie of cocaine in the centre console. Pursley told deputies “all the items in his vehicle were his except for anything illegal,” the report said.

He refused to submit to a urine test for the DUI and, when asked if a urine test would show cocaine use, allegedly replied with “no comment.” He is charged with DUI, failing to drive within a single lane, knowingly driving while his licence was suspended or revoked and possession of cocaine. His next scheduled court date is March 10.
