Police: Saint Louis University Bus Driver Takes Off Intoxicated, Leaving Team Stranded

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Saint Louis University suffered a 70-55 loss to St. Bonaventure on Wednesday night, but it certainly wasn't their most surprising loss of the night.

Their 56-year-old female bus driver took off with their bus while intoxicated, according to New York State Police Trooper James O'Callaghan.

The basketball team was stuck stranded after the 15-point loss.

The driver was arrested on .22 percent blood alcohol content and is facing a charge of driving while intoxicated, police say.
