According to court records, Garcia showed his sheriff's office ID to the HPD officer who pulled him over. Garcia reportedly had been at a bar on Fannin Saturday night, but didn't remember when he had his last drink. He failed the field sobriety test and a breathalyzer test indicated he was well over the legal limit.
He was released Sunday after posting a $100 bond.
