OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - Omaha police say they’ve arrested a 32-year-old man suspected of driving drunk with five children in his vehicle after one of the kids called 911.
Omaha television station KETV reports that a 14-year-old boy - the driver’s nephew - inside the car called 911 around noon Sunday. Police say when officers stopped the vehicle, they found the children - ranging in age from 12 to 15 - crying and the driver showing clear signs of intoxication.
Police say a breath test showed the driver’s blood alcohol content at nearly .30 - nearly four times the legal limit to drive.
