Sounds like some excitement on campus last Thursday.

Hummer driver faces felony charge (http://www.inforum.com/event/article/id/275269)


After arresting Stowers, police traced his tracks and allege that he hit at least two poles, two trees, steps of a pavilion near the Memorial Union and a 9/11 commemorative plaque.

As he drove across a plaza area east of the MU, Stowers was swinging at students who were trying to pull him out of his Hummer, police said. Earlier, he hit a large tree and got out of his vehicle to encourage witnesses to get inside the Hummer so they “could all get away,” police said.

The police report in court records said field sobriety tests were performed but didn’t state the results of a preliminary breath test.

I think it's safe to assume his BAC was a bit north of .08.

I actually am friends with a few of the people who tried to pull him out of the Hummer and they all say that they could not smell any alcohol.

The strange thing of the whole incident was that there was no mention of it last week considering there were 10 cops (according to my friends) and a hummer driving around campus.

I hereby am scrapping plans for buying a yellow Hummer for tailgating purposes. My wife will be pleased.
