Repeat DUI Suspect Arrested Again After Past Parade Mishap
BAKERSFIELD, CA (April 19, 2024) — Alan Booth, previously charged with DUI after a crash at the Bakersfield Christmas Parade that injured three, was arrested again for suspected DUI in Bakersfield.
The incident occurred Wednesday around 5 p.m. near Jim Burke Ford on Oak Street, where police responded to calls of a potential drunk driver.
Booth, found allegedly under the influence, faces renewed scrutiny as he navigates charges from the parade incident last December, where his high-speed reversal into a crowd led to severe injuries and raised public safety concerns.
At that time, tests revealed his blood alcohol level was nearly three times the legal limit. He pleaded not guilty to multiple felony charges in January.
With legal proceedings ongoing, Booth’s defense mentions his recent hospitalization and unintentional license suspension due to missed DMV communications as complicating factors. They propose monitoring to prevent further incidents.
