Man arrested for alleged fifth drunk driving offense

A 44-year-old St. Cloud man was charged Monday with a fifth-offense drunk driving offense, after being stopped Sunday night by a Sheboygan County sheriff's deputy on state Highway 23 in Plymouth.

Dennis B. Hiebing could receive up to three years in prison if convicted on the felony fifth-offense drunk driving charge, and also faces a third-offense misdemeanor charge of driving with a revoked license, for which he could be imprisoned for one year.

According to a criminal complaint:

Hiebing was eastbound on state Highway 23 at about 8:45 p.m. Sunday when he was pulled over by a Sheboygan County Sheriff's deputy just west of county Highway OJ after another motorist reported that he was driving erratically.

While following, the deputy said Hiebing nearly drove his car off the shoulder and into a guardrail at the intersection of state Highway 67.

The deputy asked Hiebing to exit the car and noticed he had trouble standing up. Asked where he was headed, Hiebing said he was on his way to pick up his children.

A preliminary breath test showed a blood-alcohol level of 0.18, more than twice the 0.08 level the state considers to be evidence of intoxication. Hiebing told the deputy he had consumed a 12-pack of beer in the last five hours and that he had taken 20 different medications for his heart, back and shoulder.
