DUI toting grandchild

COLLEGEDALE, Tenn. — An East Tennessee grandfather has been charged with reckless endangerment, DUI and a probation violation after police say they stopped him while he was driving, drinking and holding his grandson in his arms. He had a .13 BAC.

Fred Campbell of Collegedale was stopped because his van had a broken tail light. The video shows the driver get out of the van holding a 2-year-old.

Campbell told officers the boy had been riding in his lap and that he had drunk six or seven beers, including one that was half-full and still cold inside the vehicle.
