From staff reports
State police have charged a 33-year-old Summerville woman with driving under the influence of a controlled substance and the suspect allegedly admitted she did so while driving a school van.
Laurie S. Watkins is charged with driving under the influence of a controlled substance, a misdemeanor, at 12:46 p.m. June 6 in Clarion Township.
Watkins allegedly told state police Tpr. Marc Hunsberger she had used morphine the previous evening around 11 p.m.
Watkins said she had not used any marijuana for the past several days.
Watkins was transported to Clarion Hospital around 1:30 p.m. for a blood draw.
The blood sample tested positive for THC, the chemical in marijuana that produces the user’s “high.”
Court documents did not indicate for which school district Watkins allegedly drove the van or if any students were in the van while Watkins was driving.
