Fight Between Friends Leads To OUI Charges For Salem Massachusetts Man

Just the other night Andrew Caron was with his friend Carl Fuller. Fuller was driving his father’s car. Apparently Fuller had loaned Caron the keys this past Saturday night. Supposedly Caron was sober at the time. Caron returned with a couple of girls, picked up Fuller and continued to drive the car. Fuller became concerned about Caron’s state of sobriety and tried to get him to pull over. Caron pulled the car over at which time he and Fuller struggled over the keys. A Salem, Massachusetts police officer witnessed the event and investigated. He asked Caron if he had been drinking. Caron told the officer that he had not been drinking. Fuller told the cop otherwise. Caron and Fuller continued their struggle and Caron was arrested. He now stands charged with OUI in the Salem District Court. A district court set bail at one thousand dollars cash.
