Dash-Cam Video Shows Former Mayor Naked
Tom Coyne In Betty Ford Center
NORTH OLMSTED, Ohio -- Former Brook Park Mayor Tom Coyne is in the Betty Ford Clinic. This comes after police released dash-cam video of him nude along a stretch of a road in North Olmsted Monday.
"I deeply regret that a personal issue has become so public," Coyne said in a written statement. "I accept full responsibility for my actions -- and offer my profound apologies to family and friends that I have saddened and disappointed by those actions." (Read Complete Statement)
Officers said Coyne, 54, was unresponsive when he was first found around 2 a.m.
When police questioned Coyne he said he thought he was at home in bed and his car was downstairs.
His blood-alcohol level was .274, which is about three times the legal limit allowed to drive in the state of Ohio, NewsChannel5 reported.
A resident found Coyne lying in his yard on Columbia Road with his shirt off and his pants around his ankles.
A warrant was issued for his arrest. Coyne's attorney appeared in Rocky River Municipal Court Tuesday to say that Coyne had gone to the Betty Ford Clinic in California for rehabilitation.
Westlake police said the warrant would be withdrawn as long as counsel provides proof that Coyne entered the treatment center, his records from the center would be released and Coyne may not drive an any time for any reason until the court allows.
He was also ordered to post $3,500 bond.
A few months ago, Coyne spent time locked up for drunken driving in Westlake and now he faces a probation violation.
"I was in court when he was sentencing. I know abstaining from alcohol was one of the points," said Lt. Ray Arcuri of the Westlake Police Department.
North Olmsted police also expect to meet with the city prosecutor Tuesday about filing disorderly conduct charges.
