Non-student visitor charged with driving under the influence

Mckensi J.

Anna Marie Davis, 19, of Seavers Hall was charged with underage drinking at the same time.

Davis was observed vomiting out of the passenger side window of Washabaugh’s vehicle in the area of Old Main Drive and North Earl Street when university police officers stopped the vehicle to check on the welfare of the vehicle’s passengers.

Washabaugh was transported to the Carlisle Regional Medical Center where a blood alcohol test was conducted, and charges were later filed against her for driving under the influence. Davis was transported back to her residence hall where she was released. A citation was later filed charging her with underage drinking.

An ambulance was dispatched to the scene and Brandt was taken to Chambersburg Hospital for further evaluation and treatment.
