An Amish man cops say was drunk was filmed passed out behind the wheel of his moving buggy - which only came to a halt when it crashed into a police road block.
Bodycam video captured the moment twenty-one-year-old Nathan Miller was found in Orwell by Ashtabula Sheriff deputies around 2:43 a.m. on Saturday.
Law enforcement had responded to reports that Miller's buggy was 'all over the road,' Fox News first reported.
'Hey, hey, wake up!' Sheriff's Deputy Mike Talbert can be heard saying as he first spots the rogue buggy.
When Miller trundles on by to the sound of clattering hooves, Talbert speaks into his radio and says: 'There's a Bud Light can in there and he's passed clean out. We got a drunk Amish guy passed out in a buggy.'
After a low-speed chase, Talbert tried to block the road, and the buggy crashed into the deputy's car.
'I have it stopped,' Talbert said. 'Nope, disregard, he just rammed it into my car.'
It was only then that a very-confused Miller woke up, and finally regained control of his buggy.
Miller has been arrested and charged with operating a vehicle while under the influence. He is scheduled in court on May 26.
Penalties for operating horse-drawn vehicles while impaired are generally lighter than those drunk car drivers are given, and Miller will likely be slapped with a fine.

At long last!
An ACTUAL miscreant who is AMISH :-)
Was the horse hurt when he crashed into the car????
NO the horse was not hurt. In fact the horse was just gently trotting along and seemed to know his way home.
The Amish man (Really Amish this time) put up no fight when put under arrest and was very cooperative. Big difference with this kind of Amish and the other kind.
> the buggy crashed into the deputy’s car
Was the horse drunk too?
Amish Lives Matter.
Yeah...It’s unusual to see REAL Amish mentioned in here....LOL
All the Amish jokes we'd crack when it's the feral blacks doing crimes and this actually happens? LOL
Sounds like a scene in a movie script. “The Amish Rogue [Buggies Gone Bad]”.
Horse turned enough for itself to not hit the cop car but the left front wheel of the buggy still hit it. Horse and buggy stopped real quick then.
what goes “clip clop. clip clop. BANG! clip clop clip clop.....” ?
A drive by Amish shooting
"There's a Bud Light can in there and he's
passed clean out."
Drunk on bud light. Not a hardcore swizzler.
That is why I posted this..YES it’s REALLY the Amish this time
This guy’s next Hip-Hop album will do well — now he’s got some street cred.
Self-driving buggy ping!
Did you mean to say next clip clop album?
