BETHLEHEM, N.Y. - State police say a New Jersey trucker charged with driving drunk on New York's Thruway was more than four times over the legal limit.

Troopers say they got a report around 6 p.m. Sunday of a truck being driven erratically in the northbound lanes of Interstate 87. Police say they pulled it over near Exit 22 in the town of Bethlehem, just south of Albany.

They say 46-year-old Thomas Weigers of Woodbridge, N.J., was charged with aggravated driving while intoxicated. Troopers say his blood alcohol content was .35 percent. The legal limit in New York for DWI is .08 percent.

Troopers say Weigers was carrying food products to Massachusetts.

He was sent to the county jail in lieu of $25,000 bail. Jail officials said they had no information on Weigers.
