WAUSAU, Wis. (AP) -- A Wausau man has been charged with his eighth drunken-driving offense.

Charles Richey was arrested last month by State Patrol in the Town of Cassel.

The 36-year-old Richey has been ordered not to consume alcohol or drive a vehicle.

His license has been revoked since 2002 and he's the second person in Marathon County in the past month to be arrested on an eighth OWI offense.

According to the most recent state data, there are about 200 Monroe County residents with eight or more OWI convictions.
