A north Alabama teacher was arrested on public intoxication and other charges Wednesday after sheriff’s deputies noticed he was “under the influence of some substance” as they performed random drug searches.
Franklin County Sheriff’s Office’s K9s alerted deputies when they sniffed a suspicious odor on Rodney Waddle’s classroom desk at Belgreen High School in Franklin County, the sheriff’s office said.
The K9s alerted deputies to odors in both vehicles, according to the sheriff’s office, and deputies noticed during the search of Waddle’s personal vehicle that he “was under the influence of some substance which caused impairment.”After a field sobriety test, the teacher was arrested on a charge of public intoxication.
