WV Teacher Pinched on Drug, Alcohol Charges

(Elk Garden, West Virginia) A 23-year-old physical education teacher at Elk Garden Primary School, Sarah Guthrie, was caught last week in her car with an underage girl in an area patrolled due to complaints of drug activity.
The vehicle was parked in a wooded area out of sight of the roadway in a spot that has been the subject of numerous past complaints for drug activity.

Occupants of the vehicle were Sarah Guthrie, 23, of Kitzmiller and a 17-year-old girl, also from Kitzmiller.

As they questioned the two occupants, the officers said they observed alcohol in the vehicle. A subsequent search revealed more alcohol and suspected marijuana on both the suspects.

They were taken into custody for drug and alcohol-related offenses, in addition to giving false information to the officers.
The girl was handed over to her parents. Guthrie was booked into custody at the Potomoc Highlands Regional Jail and later released on$2,000 bond.
