MOREAU, NY — A Gansevoort man was arrested on drunken driving charges following a single-vehicle crash Tuesday night.

The Saratoga County Sheriff’s Office responded to a motor vehicle crash at 11:53 p.m. on Gansevoort Road.

He was allegedly operating a 2016 Dodge pickup truck traveling north on Gansevoort Road when he exited the roadway due to slippery pavement.

Hockford was released on appearance tickets pending proceedings in Moreau Town Court.
