A North Platte man woke up with more than a headache Friday morning after he tangled with North Platte Police and a fence.

At around 1:05 a.m., on Friday, North Platte Police responded to Casey’s, 2421 Rodeo Road, after receiving a report that a vehicle had rammed the fence at the business and was attempting to leave the scene.

An officer arrived and found the driver, 35-year-old Donald Filkin, still attempting to back away from the fence.

Police say officers made contact with Filkin, who became uncooperative and aggressive toward the officers.

Officers eventually subdued him, and placed him under arrest.

They say Filkin smelled of alcohol, and appeared to show signs of intoxication.

In the end, Filkin was jailed and charged with driving under the influence of liquor-2nd offense, open container, leaving the scene of an accident and resisting arrest.

Upon arrival at the jail, Filkin refused to take a breath test.  As a result, he was also charged with refusal to submit to a breath test.

The amount of damage done to the fence is unknown at this time.
