PARSIPPANY — In Parsippany, a 21-year-old East Rutherford man was arrested for driving while intoxicated following a motor vehicle stop on Sunday, June 15, 2025.
At approximately 3:10 p.m., Officer Justin Gosden of the Parsippany-Troy Hills Police Department stopped a white Honda Accord on Route 46 East at New Road after observing a motor vehicle violation.
Upon approaching the vehicle, Officer Gosden observed signs of impairment. After conducting field sobriety tests, the driver, Angel R. Walker, was placed under arrest for Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) and transported to Parsippany Police Headquarters for processing.
At headquarters, a breathalyzer test was administered, which revealed that Walker had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.14% — nearly twice the legal limit of 0.08% in New Jersey.
Walker was issued the following motor vehicle summonses:
- 39:4-50 – Driving While Intoxicated
- 39:4-96 – Reckless Driving
- 39:4-97 – Careless Driving
The vehicle was impounded following DWI protocol. Walker was later released pending a court appearance in Parsippany Municipal Court.
The Parsippany-Troy Hills Police Department continues to remind the public of the dangers of impaired driving and urges all motorists to operate vehicles responsibly and within the law.
