Elk Grove police: Father arrested for drunken driving after daughter takes to wheel

Elk Grove police arrested a father for drunken driving who they said allowed his 10-year-old daughter to drive his vehicle while seated on his lap.

Officers were called about 10:30 a.m. Saturday to the area near Mykonos Way and Freitag Way on a report of a girl driving a vehicle. Once they arrived, officers saw a girl sitting on her father's lap while driving.

Police said the adult showed signs of impairment when stopped. The father refused to comply with instructions, resisted handcuffing and had to be taken to the ground for officers to gain control, according to a police watch summary.

Police said Kenneth Grau, 55, was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, child endangerment and resisting arrest.
