A deputy on routine patrol passing the Food Lion on Highway 16 early yesterday morning saw something that made him turn around to go check on a car in the store parking lot. He doesn't say what it was that piqued his attention, but the deputy turned around to check out the carload of kids. The car sped off down Kite Road with is headlights off, with the deputy following as best he could. The driver got to the car wash and everyone bailed out of the car on foot and disappeared by the time the deputy pulled up. The deputy says two people came back tot he car wash a while later to get the car, only to find the deputy waiting on them. He arrested a 17-year old on a charge of DWI Under 21, after a breath test showed a blood alcohol of .05. He also cited the teen for careless, reckless driving. The passenger, another 17-year old, was charged with underage consumption and released to a family member.
