Troopers: Man charged after DUI crash with young kids in car Posted: Mar 04, 2015 10:56 AM EST Updated: Apr 01, 2015 11:06 AM EDT By Dal KalsiCONNECT William Henderson (Courtesy: Spartanburg Co. Detention Center) William Henderson (Courtesy: Spartanburg Co. Detention Center) MAYO, SC (FOX Carolina) - A Fingerville man faces multiple charges after troopers with the SC Highway Patrol said he crashed while driving drunk with young children in his vehicle. William Henderson, 25, crashed when he turned left in front of an oncoming 18-wheeler along Highway 110 in the Mayo area of Spartanburg County Tuesday, troopers said. Troopers said five children were in the car at the time; ranging in ages from 11 months to 7-years-old. Troopers said all children except the 7-year-old should have been in child seats but only two were properly restrained. Troopers said Henderson and all five children were taken to the hospital. Henderson was charged with two counts of felony DUI with great bodily injury, one count of child endangerment, driving under suspension first offense, open container of beer or wine in vehicle, and unlawful communication. During a bond hearing Wednesday afternoon at the Spartanburg County Detention Center, the solicitor's office revealed that two of the children injured in the crash remained hospitalized with head injuries and were in serious condition. Solicitor Barry Barnette said the three other children have been placed in DSS custody, but the family maintains that is not true. The mother of the five children, who is Henderson's ex-girlfriend, came to his defense Wednesday. "He's devastated over the situation," said Amber Moore, who has spent the last day at Greenville Memorial Hospital with her two children who were seriously injured. "He loves his kids, he really does. Everybody has their flaws. Will has a problem with drinking, he is an alcoholic. It's not only a problem, it's a disease.". .source: www.foxcarolina.com
