SANDUSKY, Ohio - Authorities in northern Ohio say a woman convicted four times of drunken driving has been arrested a fifth time on the same charge -- this time with her 8-year-old son and an open bottle of rum in the car.
Police in Perkins Township near Sandusky say 32-year-old Brandi Feltis of Vermilion was arrested last weekend after a tipster reported seeing her weave off the road 20 times.
She has been charged with child endangering, drunken driving and having an open liquor container. She's in jail with a $15,370 bond.
The Morning Journal reports she has drunken driving convictions in 2011, 2007 and twice in 2003.
No home phone number could be found for Feltis, and there is no attorney listed for her in court records.
