Shelby County Sheriff's Deputy Edward Whitworth arrested 86 drunk or otherwise impaired drivers last year.
The state Department of Transportation Safety gave Whitworth an award for his vigilance and also and award to the Shelby County Sheriff's Office which arrested a total of 271 drivers on charges of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs during the same time period.
Gene Witt, chief deputy for the department, said Whitworth, 31, is not only a dedicated officer but a multi-talented one as well because he is one of two paramedics on staff.
