' After the crash, which occurred on an otherwise ordinary afternoon, McCluskey expressed remorse and asked for help from first responders, despite his earlier statements.

Fortunately, there were three workers in the dispatch area at the time, and none were injured. However, police detected the odor of alcohol on McCluskey after he was pulled from the vehicle.
