The woman charged in the crash that injured members of the Teutopolis basketball team failed to appear for a court hearing Monday morning.

36-year-old Scarlett McKinzie faces three felony counts of aggravated DUI along with four traffic counts stemming from a crash on February 10 on Illinois Route 32 at the Bruce-Findlay Road. The impact of the crash caused the bus to overturn on its side. Seven students on the bus were taken to the hospital for observation, as was McKinzie.

McKinzie's case was called three times Monday morning, but she did not appear. Her preliminary hearing was rescheduled for May 9.
