Underage drinking at Friday’s Washington High School football game led to several arrests.
Sgt. Steve Mize was called to the football field at 8:55 p.m. where children were reportedly drinking alcohol. The children ran from Mize and Patrolman Barry Hudson but they were soon located. A 10-year-old girl was taken to Daviess Community Hospital. She was charged with minor consuming and public intoxication. Two boys, ages 11 and 15, were both charged with minor consuming and public intoxication. They were both released to parents. A 13-year-old boy was charged with minor consuming and public intoxication. He was taken to Southwest Youth Village, Vincennes.
The officers learned who had allegedly provided the alcohol. They went to 515 1/2 E. George St. where they found adults and minors with alcohol and marijuana. Arrested were Jayme Allen Booher, 21, 415 E. George St., who was charged with two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and visiting a common nuisance.
