Another Dumb Criminal

Samuel Olivo Jr. had a riding accident several months ago. He slipped from his saddle and was dragged about 50 yeards, breaking several ribs and collapsing both lungs. He spent two weeks in the hospital.

Recovered at last, he and his friend Jose Rios decided to celebrate by riding their horses through downtown Austin. They were arrested for drunk driving after hitching their horses outside several bars they patronized. Olivo said he'd had several drinks. "I was drunk," he said.

Perhaps that explains why he couldn't stay in the saddle when he had his accident. Some people just never learn.
