October 22, 2007 (VANCOUVER, Wash.) – An 8-year-old boy riding in a car with his mom called 911 several times to report that she wasn’t “acting normal,” leading to her arrest for investigation of drunken driving and other charges, authorities said.

Paulette Lynn Spears, 33, was arrested Saturday after she drove to a fire station and said she had a medical problem. “He said ‘I don’t know where we are, and Mom’s not acting normal,”‘ sheriff’s Sgt. Randon M. Walker said.

At one point, Spears took a cellular telephone from the boy, told the dispatcher not to worry and hung up, Walker said. The boy called back, and again his mother cut short the call, Walker said. As of Monday, Spears remained in jail for investigation of drunken driving, two counts of reckless endangerment and assault of a child.

Great! Another first class parent… not!
