August 14, 2007
ELKO, Nev. (AP) - This might make for a tense time at home.
An off-duty sheriff's deputy in Nevada was pulled over and charged with driving under the influence - the arresting officer, her husband.
Charlotte Moore, a 36-year-old jail deputy and 11-year veteran, was driving her 2004 Pontiac Grand Am when she was pulled over by Elko County Sheriff's Deputy Mike Moore.
A published report says the woman allegedly drove off before she could be given a breathalyzer test. Her husband is said to have pulled her over again and called the Elko Police Department for backup.
Charlotte Moore is now on paid administrative leave.
She reportedly had been drinking during a downtown business group's wine walk.
