Massachusetts Lt. Gov. Candidate Shawn Oliver Suspends Campaign After OUI Arrest and Crash
Republican lieutenant governor candidate Shawn Oliver suspended his campaign after being arrested for driving under the influence and crashing into multiple parked cars in New Bedford. The incident occurred just 17 days before the November 3 general election, prompting his gubernatorial running mate, Mike Minogue, to demand his immediate suspension and future resignation. Oliver was charged with OUI, negligent operation, speeding, and a marked lanes violation, and was released from jail on Sunday morning.
