Despite the other patrons yelling at Salinas, he stayed asleep until deputies opened his door and allegedly attacked them.

“Unlike his victim, our deputies can fight back,” the sheriff’s statement read.

During the scuffle, Salinas “slightly injured” one deputy before he was taken into custody, according to authorities.

Following the arrest of Salinas, deputies had a message for those being sought by law enforcement.

“Pro tip: If you have a warrant – especially for charge that can get you a life sentence – you probably should not drink and drive,” the sheriff’s office said. “You definitely should not drink and drive and pass out in the drive-thru lane at McDonald’s.”
