The Daily Pilot reported on an Orange County DUI. A 48-year-old Newport-Mesa sports coach and Costa Mesa resident arrested on suspicion of Orange County DUI – driving under the influence, last month will not be charged, prosecutors said Tuesday.
Laurence Draluck, 48, the Newport Harbor High School girls’ soccer coach, was arrested Oct. 6 in Costa Mesa on his way home from Los Angeles when police pulled him over and eventually arrested him on suspicion of Orange County DUI, he said.
Prosecutors declined to elaborate on why they did not choose to charge him, only saying there was a lack of evidence. Prosecutors legally have up to a year from Draluck’s arrest to charge him, but said unless anything new turns up in the case, that is highly unlikely. It is rare, that there woudl be lack of evidence in an Orange County DUI.
