Prosecutor Simonas Minkevičius of Klaipėda Regional Prosecutor’s Office, carrying out an investigation into the crash, told BNS on Thursday that experts found 0.77 permille of alcohol in Mačiulis’ blood.
“Additional tests are being carried out and information is being verified. But these are the initial results,” he said, refusing to elaborate.
Experts concluded previously that Mačiulis died by drowning.
