Not Only Did A Man Get Busted For DWI, He Allegedly Gave A Phony ID

On Sunday morning around 3:30 a.m., a Schenectady man was driving westbound on I-90 in Guilderland when he was stopped by New York State Police.

During the traffic stop, 34-year-old Earl L. Pitman was given some field sobriety tests, which he failed. One of the tests showed that Pittman allegedly had a BAC of 0.16 percent. He was charged with DWI.

When he was asked to show them some identification, he was accused of giving authorities a license with somebody else’s identity on it. According to the story from News 10 ABC, Pittman’s real identification was discovered with a fingerprint check.

Pittman was also charged with criminal impersonation, aggravated unlicensed operation, a felony of offering a false instrument for filing, and forgery.
