STAFFORD COUNTY, VA – A 68-year-old Stafford resident, Homer Maxey, with a history of seven DUI charges, was arrested once again under the influence, this time following a collision involving a Fauquier County Ambulance.
The incident occurred on May 28th at approximately 8:57 p.m. at the intersection of Warrenton Road and Poplar Road. Stafford County Deputy S.A. Edwards, who responded to the scene, noted that Maxey displayed clear signs of intoxication including bloodshot eyes and slurred speech.
Maxey admitted to consuming alcohol prior to the accident.
A subsequent check revealed Maxey’s extensive DUI history and current status with a revoked and unlicensed driver’s status. Inside Maxey’s Chevy Tahoe, authorities found four empty beer cans and an unrestrained nine-year-old child in the back seat, who, fortunately, was not injured in the crash.
Maxey now faces multiple charges including DUI third offense within ten years with a child present, driving after forfeiture of his license, driving while revoked with endangerment, driving with an unrestrained child in the vehicle, and child endangerment. He is currently being held at Rappahannock Regional Jail without bond.
