KCTV-5 Crime Reporter Ticketed For DUI



T
he STAR reports it was about 2:40 am last Friday morning when Betsy Webster struck the rear of a Lincoln Town Car on 39th Street near Baltimore in midtown KC-MO..


The driver of the Lincoln and a man standing next to the car suffered "minor" injuries- The STAR reported.

As an officer talked to Ms. Webster- he noted a "strong" odor of alcohol coming from Ms. Webster.

The 38-year-old Kansas City television reporter was said to have "failed several field sobriety tests" and Betsy Webster also "refused to take a breath test.

The STAR article did not state if Ms. Webster was arrested- since after all she was intoxicated- caused an injury accident and refused a breathalyzer.

I was told there was "no one here" when I called KCTV-5 for a comment.

Well- at least someone was making sure the station was on-the-air....
