BLOOMINGTON — The driver of a late-night shuttle bus used primarily by bar patrons was charged with aggravated drunken driving Sunday after officers were notified the man may have been drinking while on the job.

Stephen Mckenna, 32, of Bloomington was charged with aggravated driving under the influence after a field breath test indicated he had a blood-alcohol level of 0.175 — more than twice the legal limit for driving, authorities said.

Court documents filed Sunday said Mckenna was driving a bus for Bob's Blue Night Limo when civilians flagged down Bloomington police after 2 a.m. Sunday in downtown Bloomington. Officers reportedly observed several people chasing after the bus and banging on the sides of it, and passengers were seen standing on the entry stairway with the door open as the bus was moving.

As officers approached, the bus struck a guy wire for a utility pole, police said.

Officers noted Mckenna had a strong odor of alcohol on his breath and he failed standard field sobriety tests, according to court documents.

The riders on the bus were transported by a different shuttle.
