Infrared Camera puts drunk driver in the hot seat

Daily Local News:
"After listening to Henderson’s story, Metzler scanned the woods lining Telegraph Road to no avail. Then he pointed the device at Henderson’s car.

'We had to do our job and find the other person, or at least try,' Metzler said. Aiming the camera at the Neon’s seats 'was just our next option.'

The device showed the fire chief just one of the seats was warm, the driver’s seat. No one else had been in the car when it crashed, the chief concluded, just Henderson.
