A Delaware man was arrested for alleged drunk driving on Saturday – after racking up eight previous DUI convictions.

Cheswold resident Christopher Harris, 44, was charged with a DUI and numerous traffic offenses Saturday afternoon. He was stopped by Delaware State Police at around 4:16 p.m. after the officer saw Harris' vehicle swerve on the road.

Harris' silver Dodge Ram was crossing lanes multiple times without using turn signals, according to authorities. 

When the trooper stopped Harris in Dover and approached his vehicle, Harris's breath allegedly smelled like alcohol.
