The strong odor of alcoholic beverages : San Antonio firefighter challenges firing after drunken driving charge
FacebookTwitterEmail
A San Antonio firefighter who was fired two years ago after he was accused of drunken driving is trying to get his job back through the appeal process outlined in the fire union’s contract with the city.
Arbitration proceedings began Tuesday in the case of former San Antonio firefighter Albert Cerda, who was fired in May 2019 after the fire department said he led a Selma police officer on a nine-minute car chase, at one point swerving into oncoming traffic.
Selma police officer Josten Rodriguez testified that the pursuit started around 6:30 p.m. on Feb. 24, 2019, after he observed Cerda’s vehicle stopped in the right lane of Retama Parkway.
