STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich. — Authorities say a suburban Detroit school bus driver was arrested for suspected drunk driving after her bus carrying dozens of students crashed in Sterling Heights.
Police say the driver for Utica Community Schools was arrested after Tuesday afternoon's minor crash, which did not injure any of the 30 to 40 Henry Ford II High School students aboard.
Sterling Heights police say responding officers determined only the bus was involved in the crash.
Police say the driver was arrested after officers detected a strong smell of intoxicants on the woman’s breath.
A preliminary breath test indicated the woman’s blood-alcohol limit was 0.10, or above Michigan’s legal limit of 0.80 for driving.
