DUI TECHNICIAN ARRESTED ON DRUG CHARGES

ORLANDO, Fla., - An Orange County Sheriff's technician
employed at a DUI center is facing cocaine-possession charges.

39-year-old Michael Albaladejo was arrested after he allegedly
purchased three grams each of powder cocaine and crack cocaine from an
undercover deputy sheriff.

Albaladejo - a four-year veteran who processed motorists suspected of
driving under the influence - has been suspended from his job without
pay pending the results of an internal investigation.

Authorities say complaints about Albaladejo's alleged drug abuse
prompted an undercover investigation.
