AUSTIN, TX -- A father of two in Austin is in a lot of hot water, after being accused of taking his kids to a strip club this week and leaving them in his car while he got liquored up.
Police say he then got back behind the wheel and drove drunk with his kids in the back seat. Luckily, an Austin police officer noticed the father's truck didn't have headlights on and that it was veering into oncoming traffic.
Austin police say when the officer pulled over the truck, he found two children in the car, ages 4 and 7.
The father, David Guerrero-Cervantes, was arrested and officers say the children were not hurt.
Officials say there have been 49 DWI arrests with children in the car already this year.
Sad.
