A school bus driver for Lee County schools was arrested Thursday morning for allegedly driving drunk during her morning route.
Broadway Police Chief Todd Hinnant said Bonnie Gilmore Sloan of Sanford has been charged with DWI, reckless driving to endanger, misdemeanor child abuse and two counts each of injury to personal property for knocking down two mailboxes.
Chief Hinnant said police received a call from a parent saying his stepson had called his wife saying his bus driver was driving erratic and he was scared. Twenty kids were on the bus at the time, police said. Sloan also hit two mailboxes while on her route.
Police said Sloan was stopped in her personal vehicle after dropping off the kids and the bus at school. Sloan was given field sobriety tests and failed them.
Sloan is also charged with hit and run and leaving the scene of property damage. She was released Thursday after posting a $10,000 secured bond.
