WINONA, Minn. – A Richfield man was arrested driving drunk half an hour after being released from jail on another drunk-driving charge from earlier in the night. Police said that Agripino Velazquez Jimenez, 40, had been released to a sober adult as per protocol. Half an hour later, just before 1 a.m. on Riverview Drive, Jimenez was stopped at the wheel again. The sober adult was riding along. Jimenez’ blood tested at 0.13% alcohol — more than 1-1/2 times the legally allowable max. Jail records document this sequence:
> 10:34 p.m.: Jimenez was brought to the Winona County jail by a State Patrol trooper who had stopped him for speeding and driving drunk.
> 12:28 a.m.: Jimenez was released to a sober party.
> 1:05 a.m.: Jimenez was brought back to jail by a sheriff’s deputy after a new drunken-driving stop, still with an elevated blood-alcohol reading.
