Description
The evidence was undisputed that on the day in question the appellant, while driving his automobile upon a public street in the city of Amarillo, drove into the yard of a Mrs. Irene Morgan and struck a fence. The collision occurred in the forenoon and at the time two young children were riding in the automobile with appellant. After striking the fence appellant backed out of the yard, drove away, and was later arrested around 2:30 P.M. at the home of Mrs. Ruth Sweeney. Witnesses were called by the state who had observed appellant either at the time of the collision or after he was placed under arrest and, based upon their observation of him, testified that in their opinion he was intoxicated at the time they saw him. Among the witnesses called was Mrs. Sweeney who testified that on the day in question appellant left her home around 10:45 A.M.
