PALM BAY, Fla. -- A man accused of driving drunk in Brevard County is appealing police use of a forced blood test.
Tony Isley refused a breathalyzer test during a traffic stop in Palm Bay. So police got a search warrant on the spot to take a sample of his blood.
Currently, the only forced blood tests happen when there's a crash with injuries. Prosecutors said there was nothing in current law that would not allow forced blood tests, even if officers had to restrain the suspect."
