Carl is pretty much on the nose with this one.

In PA, a BAC is not required to prove either underage drinking or public drunkeness. Intoxication can be proven without a BAC test......we all know the signs of someone being drunk. For the underage offense, it is unlawful for a minor to consume any alcohol, so the mere presence of any alcohol is sufficient to prove the violation.

The public is entitled to the police report with a few exceptions. However, not all departments would require an incident report be completed, so one may not exist. Regardless, there will most likely not be any BAC results as no test is required to be given.

i do have another question if and i know im going to hear it from some of the people on here but i honestly want to know. If i were to take the 90 day jail sentence instead of the fine would my license still be suspended? I can afford the fine but putting my life and school on hold for 90 days is much easier then putting it on hold for 1 year, even if it had to be in jail.
you like bending over and coughing?
