Bush Daughters Under InvestigationPresident Bush's 19-year-old twin daughters allegedly tried to purchase alcohol at a restaurant using someone else's identification card, police said Wednesday.Police said they received a 911 call Tuesday evening from the manager of Chuy's restaurant who said minors were attempting to purchase alcohol. Bush's daughters, Jenna and Barbara, "were alleged to have been involved," according to a statement released by Austin police. Austin police and the Texas Alcohol Beverage Commission were investigating the incident. The legal drinking age in Texas is 21. Less than a month ago, Jenna Bush pleaded no contest to a charge of being a minor in possession of alcohol in connection with another incident. The plea stemmed from a ticket police issued while checking for minors in possession of alcohol at nightclubs along the popular East Sixth Street entertainment district April 27. She was ordered to pay $51.25 in court costs, serve eight hours of community service and attend six hours of alcohol awareness classes. Bush is a student at the University of Texas at Austin. Barbara attends Yale University.
