At 2:07 a.m. Dec. 18, a New Berlin police officer on patrol went through the parking lot of Kwik Trip, 15710 W. Small Road, and found Bradley inside his car and slumped over his steering wheel, passed out. The officer pounded on the driver’s side window of the car for two minutes before Bradley finally woke up.

Bradley had constricted pupils and the officer then made him perform a field sobriety test, which he passed. The officer then searched Bradley and found an Oxycodone pill in his pocket, which Bradley said he thought was Ibuprofen.
