Alabama teacher facing meth chargesDOTHAN, Ala. (AP) — Authorities say a south Alabama teacher will likely lose his job following his arrest on methamphetamine and alcohol charges. Houston County sheriff's deputies say 32-year-old Jason Allen Andrews was arrested on drug charges after being pulled over during a traffic stop. He's also charged with illegally selling moonshine. The Dothan Eagle reports (http://bit.ly/LMtnPG ) that Andrews is a science teacher at Ashford High School in southeast Alabama. But Houston County Superintendent Tim Pitchford says Andrews is now on leave and likely won't have his contract renewed after a review on Friday. Pitchford also says a county background check didn't detect Andrews' past arrest on theft charges in 2005 because that case was dismissed. Court records don't show whether Andrews has hired an attorney. ___ Information from: The Dothan Eagle, http://www.dothaneagle.com |
