Two of the children who were killed are from my city, and probably attended my youngest daughter's school. I ran the names past her and she didn't recognize them.
Apparently Mr. Drunkass had stopped at a fast-food restaurant, where the employees called 911 as he drove away. Unfortunately, they were too late.
Reminds me of the time I was in line at Pet Supplies Plus, and the guy behind me stunk of whiskey. Red faced, staggering, etc. I waited in the lot for a minute, wondering if he was going to drive (the store is within short walking distance of a neighborhood). Sure enough he staggered out to his tricked-out Camaro and got in. I called police immediately, and followed him while staying on the phone with an officer. They showed up and nailed him quickly. Thank god that incident ended better than this one.
