Is Anyone in Schererville Sober?

By Marcus Gilmer in News on Nov 10, 2008 10:00PM

It seems there's a lot of drinking going on in Schererville, Indiana these days. Police stopped a 24-year-old woman for speeding and then arrested her for driving under the influence with her one year old son in the car. Police called the child's father to pick him up, but the father showed drunk and was also arrested. Next, the police called the child's grandparents who, yep, had also been drinking. After they determined the grandmother's blood-alcohol-content was below the legal limit, they allowed her to drive the child home, escorting her. [WBBM]
