Fort Worth Council Member Charged with DWI

0:00Fort Worth City Council member Michael Crane is now officially facing a driving while intoxicated charge. The Texas Department of Public Safety filed the case with the Tarrin County District Attorney's Office this Wednesday turning his January arrest into formal action. It all went down on January 16th along Chisholm Trail Parkway. Crane got booked into Tarrin County jail that Saturday evening on the Class B misdemeanor suspicion, then posted bond and walked out the next day. A few days later at the January 20th council meeting, Crane owned up to the mess. He apologized to his family and voters for the headache it caused, all while serving his fifth year repping district three in Southwest and West Fort Worth. He's a real estate broker who just snagged a third two-year term last year, covering spots like Walsh Ranch. No major update since, but the case keeps rolling forward. Court's set for April 23rd, so we'll see how this shakes out for Crane and his district. Stay tuned as it develops.
