bakersfield attorney on the wrong side of the law

A Bakersfield attorney has been arrested on suspicion of driving drunk after crashing into a DUI checkpoint. William Wright, 42, reportedly ran through the checkpoint and hit the back of a Highway Patrol car during the set-up of the operation at Calloway and Slikker Drives December 14. The patrol car struck three CHP personnel who suffered moderate injuries. Wright operates his own law firm in Bakersfield. The Kern County District Attorney’s office says no formal complaint has been filed in the case.
