¶1WRIT GRANTED AND MADE PEREMPTORY: Relator’s conviction and sentence are reversed and set aside. The record fails to reflect that the state proved beyond a reasonable doubt that relator operated the vehicle while intoxicated. From the evidence there is a reasonable hypothesis that relator did his drinking after he drove the vehicle into the ditch. State v. Willson, 534 So.2d 55 (La.App. 3 Cir.1988).
