A Butler man is accused of banging on windows outside an elementary school after hours while intoxicated.

Nicholas A. Edwards, 31, was charged with two felony counts of child endangerment and one misdemeanor count each of disorderly conduct and DUI following the alleged incident around 4:30 p.m. Friday, May 30, outside Emily Brittain Elementary School.

Police said they arrived to find Edwards outside the front doors and immediately detected signs of intoxication. Police said Edwards was irate and refused to identify himself.

Police spoke with principal Joshua Hundertmark who said Edwards was banging on windows outside the school.

Edwards told police he was late to pick up a child at the school. According to police, he was 45 minutes late. Edwards then told police he had another child in his vehicle parked on the road. Police located the child in the vehicle without a seat belt.

Police said a school employee saw Edwards leave the school with the child he came to pick up. The child was found unattended at home.

Edwards’ preliminary hearing is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. June 9 before District Judge William Fullerton. He’s being held in Butler County Prison on a $30,000 bond.
