Maine Mom Allegedly Drunk at School
State police say a 32-year-old Maine woman has been arrested for allegedly being drunk when she showed up at school to pick up her child.
Authorities say Jennifer Marriner was arrested for operating under the influence last Friday after she drove to the Union Elementary School to pick up her child.
Sgt. Patrick Hood tells the Bangor Daily News said that when the mother arrived, a school official called state police, who arrived at the scene within a few minutes.
The school did not release the child to the mother before police arrived.
Police say her blood alcohol level was greater than the 0.08 legal limit to drive.
She was taken to the Knox County Jail in Rockland and released on bail.
