WALMART HEIRESS ALICE WALTON BUSTED FOR DWI

DRUNK
THE HEIRESS to the Walmart fortune spent most of her 62nd birthday in jail after cops busted her for drunk driving.
Alice Walton, who Forbes currently name as, America's 10th richest person was busted Friday night after failing a field sobriety test. 
The daughter of store founder Sam Walton, who's estimated net worth is $23 Billion, was then determined to be intoxicated and taken to the Parker County Jail, about 20 miles west of her luxury, Mislap, TX mansion.
Senior Trooper Gary Rozzell told the Weatherford Democrat: "We’re going to treat this like anybody else."
He added that she had refused a breath test at the scene. 
On this occasion Walton was released on $1000 bond, but records show it's not the first time that Walton was convicted of DUI in 1998 and fined several hundred dollars.  
Previous news accounts state Walton was also involved in a 1989 wreck in Arkansas that resulted in the death of a 50-year-old woman although no charges were reportedly filed.
Neither Walmart or Walton have commented on the bust.
