SAN ANTONIO — A Northside ISD board member is facing charges that she drove while intoxicated.
According to Bexar County court records, Dr. Karla Duran was arrested Sunday.
We're waiting to get more details on what led up to officers stopping her.
Her bond was set at $1,000, and she has a court date set for Oct. 3.
Duran represents Northside ISD District 3, and she was just elected to the Board of Trustees this year.
She released the following in response to a request for comment.
"I am fully committed to continuing to serve the students, parents, staff, and community of Northside ISD.
"I want to apologize for any disruption my situation may have caused the NISD community. My hope is that our NISD families can continue to focus on the amazing work our teachers and staff are doing in the first few weeks of school.
"I will use this experience as a learning and growing opportunity for myself, and continue to hope that we can all show each other grace during difficult times."
