Statement from Darrell Clarke

Council President Darrell L. Clarke has released the following statement:

“I have been informed by the Philadelphia Police Department that two City Council employees face possible DUI charges following incidents involving City-owned vehicles early this morning.

“The employees, one a receptionist and the other a Sergeant-at-Arms, were not authorized to use the City-owned vehicles at the time of the incidents. These acts, if confirmed by the authorities, display a level of conduct and disregard for public safety that cannot be tolerated.

“I await the results of a full investigation by the Philadelphia Police Department and will take appropriate action.”
