KETCHUM, Idaho -- The former mayor of Bellevue has been charged with misdemeanor drunken driving after a weekend arrest.
The Idaho Mountain Express reports 53-year-old Jon Anderson was arraigned Tuesday.
Bellevue Marshal Bryan Carpita says Anderson was pulled over Saturday afternoon by a deputy who knew Anderson's driver's license was suspended because of a pending DUI charge in Lincoln County.
Anderson resigned as mayor in June, shortly after the Lincoln County charge was filed.
Attorney Douglas Nelson says Anderson had reached a plea agreement in the earlier case, but he is now reconsidering. If Anderson is convicted of the May DUI, the Bellevue DUI could be amended to a felony charge. Anderson has a 2005 DUI conviction.
