Troopers were dispatched after receiving a call of an erratically operated vehicle on Interstate 684 at approximately 11 a.m. Authorities located the vehicle operated by Larry A. Bopp, 51 years old, of Wappinger Falls and suspected him of being intoxicated, police said.

Bopp was arraigned in Southeast Court and remanded to Putnam County Jail without bail, police said.
