CHARLOTTE, N.C -- A North Carolina woman is accused of selling moonshine out of her day care center.
North Carolina Alcohol Law Enforcement agents arrested 57-year-old Gwendolyn Brown-Johnson last week at Parkview Community Center in Charlotte.
Agents said children were in the day care center when they sent in an undercover agent to buy two gallons of moonshine.
Brown-Johnson told a local newspaper that she was set up by a neighbor. She said she was just holding a package for a man in exchange for $80 and didn't even know what was in it.
Agents also arrested Ervin Preston Finger, 82, and charged him with making the moonshine.
Authorities seized more than 80 gallons of moonshine from Finger.
