    Joseph Brill, 53, entered his plea to charges of aggravated driving while intoxicated, driving on a suspended license and having an open container of alcohol in a vehicle.
    Bernalillo County sheriff's deputies arrested Brill in an Albuquerque neighborhood. Deputies said they saw him park, then fall out of his truck.
    The deputies said they tried to give him a field sobriety test, but he could not complete it. They said he then refused a breath test.

    A criminal complaint said Brill had 27 prior DWI offenses, with at least 14 convictions, before the arrest.
    State District Judge Ernesto Romero set bond at $100,000. "The probabilities are if you get behind the wheel, you're going to hurt or kill somebody," the judge said. [AP]
