A Phelps driver faces two felony drunken-driving charges after deputies stopped a speeding vehicle in Waterloo and found two children younger than 15 in the back seat, according to the Seneca County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies arrested Brandi Connors, 41, about 2:02 a.m. Sept. 19 in the town of Waterloo. The sheriff's office said the traffic stop led to a DWI investigation.
Connors was charged with aggravated driving while intoxicated with a child in the vehicle and driving while intoxicated with a blood alcohol content above 0.08%, both felonies, the office said.
The sheriff's office said Connors was taken into custody without incident and transported to the Seneca County Law Enforcement Center, where she provided a breath sample showing a blood alcohol content of 0.08%.
The Corrections Division processed Connors and released her on appearance tickets, according to the release. The office did not provide a court date.
