Bottled Water Does Not Look Like Beer
-
A University of Virginia student went into a grocery, bought a case of bottled water, cookie dough, and ice cream, and walked out, whereupon two plainclothes Virginia state Alcoholic Beverage Control agents approached her, suspecting that the water was instead beer. She then fled, hit the agents with her SUV, and was arrested. The ABC claims that, well, she should have stopped and complied. But she hadn't done anything wrong, and she couldn't tell what those badges were for and who the agents were. They were not in uniform, and this came just after a Take Back the Night vigil that told women to be wary of strangers. You might have run, too. The state attorney doesn't want to prosecute, but the ABC seems to be less generous. (Charlottesville Daily Progress)
