(Spencer)– A Dickens man is in trouble after allegedly driving drunk with a loaded handgun in his vehicle.
The Clay County Sheriff’s Office says it received a call Sunday about a parked pickup partially on the roadway at the intersection of M-50 and 340th Street, just east of Spencer.
A deputy found the driver, 23-year-old Nathan Rosacker of Dickens, passed out in the drivers seat with the vehicle running.
During the course of a brief investigation, the deputy determined Rosacker was intoxicated but had a loaded handed on the floorboard of the truck.
Rosacker was arrested and charged with operating while intoxicated, first offense and carrying a concealed weapon in a vehicle.
He was placed in the Clay county jail to await his initial appearance in court.
