A police officer noticed a strong odor of alcohol coming from Travis’ parked vehicle and an open wine bottle on the passenger seat. Travis — whose speech was slurred, according to the officer — said he’d had an argument with his girlfriend and was trying to get back to his ranch.
“Mr. Travis was unaware of his location and kept asking me to take him home,” the officer stated. Randy Travis, 52, was booked into the county jail at 1:30 a.m. Monday and released a few hours later.
