Overzealous agents swarmed, jailed student for buying sparkling water

We wouldn't blame Elizabeth Daly for wanting a stiff drink after a disastrous encounter with seven Virginia Alcohol Beverage Control agents in Charlottesville that ended with her spending a night in jail. She's too young to drink, however. Mistaking the sparkling water she had just purchased for beer, plain-clothes agents with "unidentifiable badges" swarmed her SUV, frightening the 20-year-old and two companions. When she started the car to lower the power windows, all hell broke loose, with agents yelling, attempting to break windows, jumping on the hood and one allegedly pulling a gun. Daly fled, but stopped when the agents turned on the flashing lights and siren on their car. Daly will not be prosecuted for the three Class 6 felonies she was charged with in connection with the incident.
