Mothers Against Drunk Driving has distributed a media advisory today about new information it has received about an alcohol offense by a Little Rock teen, Benjamin Swindoll, who is free on bond while awaiting trial on a negligent homicide charge in a traffic death in March.

He was arrested in Florida as a minor in possession of beer two weeks after the March crash, MADD says. MADD also raises questions about a 2008 DWI/drug case against the youth.
