"Out of character"

| | Comments (2) |

Reporter Amanda Baumfeld's story today on Baldwin Park school board member Sergio Corona's arrest is full of interesting details.

Corona was Tased and arrested early Thursday morning after he allegedly smashed some windows at a Sandstone Street home. When police tried to stop him, they said Corona approached them "shirtless and sweaty."

Among the charges filed against Corona: driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, being under the influence of a controlled substance, felony vandalism and driving with an expired license.

Corona's colleagues say the outburst isn't like him.

"This is completely out of character for him," said Baldwin Park Unified School District Superintendent Mark Skvarna. "He has always been very professional. It is as much of a shock to me as it is for everybody."

Really? Baumfeld reports on....


In November 2001, his driver's license was suspended after police pulled him over for suspicion of drunk driving. While criminal charges of drunk driving were dropped, his license remained suspended for six months.

Police haven't released a motive yet in the most recent incident, but school board President Jack White said it had something to do with an ex-girlfriend.

What's love got to do with it?
