Cop who killed horse charged with drunk driving

The police officer involved in a traffic accident on New Year’s Eve which left a horse dead and eleven children injured now stands accused of drunk driving. Court reports today indicate that thirty year old Clement Cacho appeared before Magistrate Dorothy Flowers on Tuesday where he was formally arraigned for driving with alcohol concentration above the prescribed limit. That charge has now been added to the list of driving without due care and attention, failure to stay on the right hand side of the road, and eleven counts of negligent harm. The police sergeant was driving his personal car when the vehicle collided with a horse and buggy on Faber’s Road. Cacho’s next scheduled court date is March second.
