ANOTHER BUS DRIVER CITED FOR DUI WITH CHILDREN ABOARD

In what is becoming an increasingly common (and alarming) event, another bus driver was cited for DUI with four children aboard his school bus.  It started when another vehicle reported his erratic driving to authorities, who then pulled over the school bus driver, 41 year-old Kenny Sellers.  Sellers failed a street sobriety test and was taken to police headquaters where he allegedly tried to escape and fought with an officer.  In total, Kenny received seven citations, including aggrevated DUI because there were children aboard, as well as aggrevated battery against a police officer.  Remember from previous posts that a DUI becomes and aggrevated DUI upon the existance of a special circumstance, such as having a minor in your vehicle, which severely increases the fines and penalties.
