Tammy Jones, 53, was arrested on Saturday on a complaint of
driving while impaired as she was shuttling passengers in a bus
at the Illinois River near Tahlequah, a popular summer
destination and a drinking spot in Oklahoma.
A lawyer for Jones was not immediately available for comment.
Jones drank the Jell-O shots offered to her by passengers,
police said.
She was a driver for the Eagle Bluff Resort in Tahlequah,
responsible for shuttling guests to the river. She has since
been fired, authorities confirmed.
She was arrested with 0.07 blood alcohol level, exceeding
Oklahoma's limit of 0.06-0.07 percent, police said.
