She called in a second time to inform them that he was at a Shell gas station in a silver Toyota Highlander. Officers will soon find evidence of what she's telling them in a vehicle. >> Hey, how you doing? >> How you doing? >> Good afternoon. How are you? >> Good. >> How are you? >> Everything going all right? >> Yeah. How are you? >> Oh, I'm doing all right. You got a driver's license on you by chance? >> Yeah.

I just bought something now. >> Okay. All right. You haven't had anything to drink earlier today? >> No. >> Okay. You mind if I check you out to make sure you're safe to drive in the parking lot? >> Yeah. >> And there it goes from there. I mean, you're fine to drive, right? >> You said driving out here. >> Yeah. You pulled into here. You didn't disappear here, right? >> No. >> You see what I'm saying? But you haven't had anything to drink today? >> No. >> Okay. Oh, you just stand right here for me.

Can you if you feel the need to blink, you can blink. All right. Okay. >> All right. Now, I'm going to go up. All right. Just follow it with your eyes. All right. Mr. Cruz, continue on with the test. Do you have any issues walking in a straight line at all? Okay. Pretty flat parking lot. We'll just start back here. If you'll just come to here and then turn around and face my sergeant there. Okay. Now, hold on. I'm going explain the test to you before anything happens. All right. So, you're saying you don't have any issues with any other your legs? You can walk in a straight line fine. All right. So, what I need you to do is imagine a straight line in front of you. I want you to put that left foot on that imaginary straight line in front. >> All right. And then Yep. And then I want you to put that right foot heel to toe in front of your left. And then I just want you to put your arms lay down by your sides. And I just want you to stay like that while I explain the rest of the test. Stay like that. All right. So this test is called the walk and turn. So during the event, you're going to take nine heel to toe steps. Then you're going to make a series of small steps to turn around. Then you're going to take nine heel totoe steps back. Do you understand that? All right. So, I'm going to demonstrate for you. All right. Starting position. Going to start off one, two, three, and so on all the way to nine. And you're going to take a series of small steps coming back around to toe again. One, two, three, and all the way back to nine. All right. So before you start the test, what I want you to do is look at your feet, count your steps out aloud, keep your arms down by your side, and then don't stop until you've finished. Okay? All right. Go ahead. >> One, two, three, four, five, seven, nine. >> Just like I showed you. >> Yep. Nine. Another small series of steps to turn around and then nine back. >> One, two, three, four, five, 6, 7, 8, 9. >> Okay. All right. Good job on that. All right. Last test is, do you have any issues standing on one leg? >> No. >> Okay. So, this test is going to be the one leg stand. Just stand there with your arms down by your side for now, just hanging out.

Then I want you to face that toe outward. I want you to look at your toe and count out 100,00 1,002 1,003 until I tell you to stop. Okay? Do you understand what I'm telling you? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Until what? >> Until I tell you to stop. So just 100,00 1,002 all the way. Okay. 11 14 15 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 >> Okay.
