LOWELL -- Tewksbury police Detective Michael P. Sheehan, the department's juvenile officer, allegedly asked the state troopers who charged him Wednesday with drunken-driving, second-offense, to give him "a break" and just drive him home.
Instead, Sheehan, 52, of Tewksbury, was arrested and charged with operating under the influence of alcohol-second offense, failure to stop for police and marked-lanes violation.
In Lowell District Court Thursday, Judge Thomas Brennan released Sheehan, who has a 1985 drunken-driving conviction, on personal recognizance in connection with the incident on Interstate 495 in Chelmsford.
