The city of Pittsburgh yesterday fired a public works manager who pleaded guilty last week to driving under the influence of alcohol on his way back from a city wellness event.

John Barley, 57, a 24-year city employee and the public works operations coordinator, didn't violate city policy when he failed to report an October arrest for drunken driving until the day after his guilty plea.

But that event, combined with past problems, led to the decision to terminate, said city Operations Director Art Victor.
