Kentucky school bus driver charged with DUI

CARTER CO. - An eastern Kentucky school bus driver was charged with leaving the scene of a crash involving the bus and driving under the influence Monday, Kentucky State Police said.

Della Hoover, 38, of Olive Hill in Carter County, was driving the empty bus westbound on Kentucky 182 in the Grahn community, police said. She met an eastbound wrecker in a curve shortly before 3 p.m., and the rear driver's side of the bus hit the wrecker, police said.

The wrecker was disabled, but police said Hoover left and was found shortly afterward at West Carter High School. She returned to the bus garage and was charged by police with leaving the scene of a collision, DUI and other traffic charges, police said...
