A couple that gets busted driving drunk together stays together?
A Michigan couple was arrested after the wife was driving drunk with her children in the car, and then her husband reportedly drove drunk to pick them up.
Siobhan Theresa Egnot, 36, was charged with operating a vehicle while under the influence with passengers under the age of 16, according to the Detroit Free Press.
Authorities have not charged her 39-year-old husband as of Wednesday.
According to police, Egnot was pulled over after they received a call that a Ford Explorer drove off the road into a ditch in Hamburg, Michigan. Both her 5-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son were passengers in the vehicle.
Egnot failed a sobriety test at the scene. She then called her husband to come get their children, but when he arrived in his car, he too appeared to be intoxicated, according to police.
The couple was taken to jail to get blood tests, news station WDIV reported. Authorities have not released the results, claiming the investigation was ongoing.
Egnot was released on $5,000 bail and is scheduled to appear in court for a pre-trial hearing on Monday.
Child Protective Services took the couple’s children into custody and later released them to their maternal grandmother.
