Gifford displayed signs of being impaired by marijuana and was placed under arrest after failing multiple standard field sobriety tests. A teenage passenger was arrested for possessing a marijuana cigarette and released with an appearance ticket.

He was processed, issued tickets returnable to the Town of Gerry Court, and released with orders to appear in the Town of Gerry Court next month to answer the charge.
