A wrong way driver in La Porte County has been given jail time for another drunk driving conviction.

 

33-year old Oliver Ngarambe was given 10 days in the La Porte County Jail on Wednesday. 

 

After his release, he must serve another 18 months in Community Corrections.

 

According to police, he was facing the wrong way at a toll gate on the Indiana Toll Road near

Rolling Prairie last year.

 

Police say he had an odor of alcohol on his breath and a half empty bottle of tequila.

 

The Granger man was also driving on a suspended license and had two prior OWI convictions, authorities said.
