An intoxicated driver in Iowa who was pulled over for erratic behavior, provided police with a state ID card that bizarrely listed his height as 8 feet tall, despite standing at just 5'8". Joel Solorzano Villeda, 33, was behind the wheel of a Ford Focus “swerving all over the road” and showed clear signs of impairment. He also had an open beer can in his car and methamphetamine when police stopped him. The phony Minnesota ID Villeda gave to cops came back with "no return" when checked, likely due to the absurd 8-foot stature claim. It also came back with a warrant as Villeda was already wanted in another county for a previous OWI offense. The suspect, who lives in Little Rock, Iowa, now faces charges including narcotics possession, drunk driving, and providing false identification to police, and is currently in jail ahead of his May 23rd court date.
You know, a lot of guys exaggerate when it comes to size...but, c'mon!
