The procurement boss for the District’s Department of General Services was arrested and charged with drunken driving after police said he was discovered sleeping in a parked car with an open wine bottle on a workday.
Jerry Wayne Lanum, 65, was charged last fall with driving under the influence and operating a vehicle while impaired, according to D.C. court documents. On Friday, a judge dismissed the case when prosecutors were not ready to proceed. The case was refiled Tuesday, and arraignment has been scheduled for Feb. 20, according to Ted Gest, a spokesman with the Attorney General’s Office.
