GREENACRES, Fla. — A sleeping driver awakened by police at a Florida intersection led authorities on a chase before being arrested in a gated community.

Police did not initially find him, but arrested him at an address found on a bill inside the car.
He was charged with fleeing and eluding, operating without a license, resisting arrest and a probation violation.
