Virginia Beach Selective Enforcement Team Officer, Bryan K. Womble, is appealing the bench court conviction of hit and run and drunk driving. Womble, 37, was sentenced to five days in jail, a $500 fine, one year suspended license, and a six month ignition interlock device. He was also ordered to attend alcohol awareness classes. Womble was one of eight officers who were part of a Virginia Beach team who specializes in DUI enforcement efforts, but has been on administrative duty since his June 20th arrest.
Womble was off duty the night of his arrest, admitting that stress from his personal life, work, and his overseas father’s recent heart surgery caused him to drink more than usual. Womble also experienced the biggest case of his career one month prior, having arrested retired NFL star Bruce Smith in May for drunk driving. He stated that he never drank a lot before, and on the night of the incident had intended on driving to the 2nd precinct to have a fellow officer drive him home.
On the way to his intended destination, he struck another car as he attempted make a right hand turn. None of the passengers in the car he hit were injured, although Womble did continue driving from the scene. He claimed the impact from the airbag left him disoriented, and pulled over two blocks away where Officer Michael Stark observed the damage to the car and performed a field sobriety test. According to police reports, Wombles’ BAC was 0.15%.
