Ethan Chierepko, 29, of Dover was charged with possession of a controlled drug and transportation of alcohol by a minor.

Thank goodness. Imagine the chaos and traffic delays that would have been created if those four had gotten in accidents.

Run that by me again.  A 29 year old man was charged with transportation of alcohol by a minor?  How is that possible, since he is not a minor?
