When someone is HAMMERED on an airport runway, the pilot might turn around and go back to the gate. But this woman wasn’t ON the plane. She was driving a silver Nissan. (???)
Police in Oklahoma arrested a woman accused of driving drunk at the Tulsa Riverside Airport last weekend. Air Traffic Control had called the cops, and said the Nissan was blocking a runway where a plane was trying to land.
A pilot who was taxiing his plane saw the Nissan, so he got out and confronted the driver. He saw the car was full of beer cans, so he reached in the car and took her keys.
The driver, Bonnie Campbell, was arrested for felony aggravated DUI, and she was taken to the hospital for treatment.
Officers said they found 18 empty beer cans inside the vehicle, along with a cardboard box of Coors Light, an empty six-pack container, and a garbage bag full of other beer cans. She blew a .34 on the state’s breathalyzer test, more than four times the legal limit.
