Man Shows Up to DUI Hearing With Open Can of Busch Beer

Keith Gruber of Swan Lake, New York was sent directly to jail after he arrived at court over an hour late for a DWI hearing. Now being late probably angered the judge a tad but the open Busch beer that Gruber was holding probably pushed the judge over the top. Gruber was later found coveting 4 more beers in a bag that he was holding. Frank LaBuda, the preciding judge asked Mr. Gruber if he enjoyed his "liquid lunch?" Gruber replied that he did and he was sorry.

Drug testing programs aim to prevent the hiring of drug-using applicants while deterring drug use among current employees. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), 21.4 percent of employed adults used illicit drugs within the past month.
