Laurel City Council member Tony Wheat was arrested and charged with DUI Saturday night, according to the Laurel Police Department.
Wheat was stopped by a Laurel police officer near Rogers and Mason streets around midnight and booked into jail, charged with driving under the influence.
Even though we hate to see failures from folks put in positions of trust it is also reassuring to see that even our elected officials can be held accountable by local police, though I wouldn't call for his head if this is a first time offense.
