On June 5th, 2024, around 9:56 p.m.
Officers Brian Souza and Louis Bone with
the Township of Union Police Department
responded to Hollyy Street on a report
of an unoccupied vehicle in the middle
of the road. They arrived on scene and
observed a 2021 Toyota Corolla blocking
the road with a female who was asleep in
the driver's seat. She was identified as
Lauren and she told the officers that
she was waiting for her fiance to return
to her car. Just step out real quick.
Yeah. Don't No, no, no, no, no. Don't
turn the car on. Don't turn the car on.
Just step out.
Just step out.
Okay.
Where are you from? Um
Okay. Where you from?
Um,
I'm going through a huge situation right
now. My fiance um
took off. As they were speaking with
Lauren, they detected the odor of
alcohol and observed other indicators of
impairment. Lauren admitted to consuming
to white claws earlier that evening.
Based on their suspicion of impairment,
they asked Lauren to exit the vehicle
and perform field sobriety exercises.
He was in the hospital. Okay. And um he
kind of took off. Uh-huh. I picked him
up and How did you end up here though?
Cuz your car is in the middle of the
road and you were sleeping inside the
car. Sorry. I just
sitting with too much today. I'm sorry.
So, have anything to drink tonight? I
can smell some alcohol from you. Yeah,
absolutely. Yeah. What' you drink?
White claw. White claw. How many? Two.
Two white claws. Yeah, the big ones. The
big ones. That's what put you to sleep.
Um, did you mix anything? Was it Was it
just white? It was just white.
And what brought you like over here
specifically? Just driving around. So,
here's the deal. My fiance um had an
accident like two weeks ago and um
he's been like
released from the hospital living on the
[ __ ] street. Okay. So, I went to
Morrison to pick him up.
I'm sorry. Um, you're good. Listen.
Careful. Careful. You're like fine. I'm
fine. I'm fine. Yeah. You're like You're
like leaning back. No. No. Um,
all right. So, listen. Here's what we're
going to do. Okay. Um, so obviously you
told me you drank. All my cousins are
cops. Like, it's not a problem. Okay.
That I understand that. Listen, the
problem is my fiance jumped out of my
[ __ ] car. I went to Morristown to
find him. Actually got like
inappropriately raced to the hospital.
I'm having I'm struggling. Yeah. And um
I don't know where he is. Okay. So So
let's take a break from the fian for one
sec. Let's focus at what we have here.
Right. So obviously your car is just
stopped in the middle of the roadway and
you were just sleeping inside the car in
the middle of the road. Um and so I
thought he was going to get back in the
car. He jumped out of the [ __ ] car.
Yeah. Um and obviously he told me to
drink. So listen, we're going to do a
couple tests. I just want to make sure
that you are in appropriate condition to
drive. Okay. We're going to do a couple
tests and we're going to go from there.
Okay. Um so can I put my phone like in
my car? I'll take your phone. I'll take
your phone.
Officer Soua started with the walk and
turn test. During the walk and turn
test, Lauren failed to touch heel to toe
on each step while raising her arms for
balance. The second exercise was the one
leg stand test. During the one leg stand
test, Lauren failed to raise her foot in
the proper fashion and put her foot down
multiple times before the test was
complete. At this time, the test was
terminated for safety concerns. One sec.
So,
just use your light, too, if it's like
pretty dark out here. Yeah, just light
enough for me. All right. So, um,
all right. Let's go. Let's come right
over here. Sure. Just face. Can I take
my this off? Cuz I have a broken toe.
Say you have what? A broken toe. Okay.
So, do you feel like you'll be able to
like I mean the tests are are walking.
Do you think you'll be able to perform
my shoes on? You want to do without your
shoes? Okay. Yeah, that's fine. Great.
Thank you.
while I'm doing it, but um it just saves
me time to mark down like any mistakes
and stuff like that. All right,
so listen. What you're going to do is um
so you're going to pretend there's going
to be an imaginary line from you to me,
okay? An imaginary straight line. And
you're going to take nine heel to toe
steps towards me and nine back. So
before you do that though, you're going
to get in the appropriate starting
position. And what that is is put your,
like I said, imagine you have a line
from you to me. And you're going to put
your left foot on the line like so. And
you're going to put your right foot in
front of your left foot, heel to toe,
and keep your hands to your side. Okay?
So, get in that position now. Left foot
in front of right side. No, no. So, put
your left foot on the line. Right. Put
your right foot in front of your left
foot.
Heel to toe. Is it okay if I turn it
out? Uh, no. It should be heel to toe.
Stand closer to it just in case she
falls. Yeah. Um, so left foot, put your
right foot like this. Look at look at my
feet the way they are. Heel to toe.
Literally like that. But I'm I'm a
dancer, so I turn out. So I don't have
like that inward rotation available to
me. So is it okay if I do it like this?
Um, or toe to toe? Yeah, like this. You
can't like put your foot like put your
foot way down like that, right? I mean,
I can, but it's Yeah, you're just you're
just going to stand there for a bit.
It's going to be quick. The test that's
the way the test is performed. Heel to
toe. Sure you get it. Okay. So, put your
left foot on the line. Put your right
foot in front of your left like so. Put
your right in front of your left. Your
right in front of your left.
Heel to toe straight. There you go.
Okay. Keep your hands to your side like
this. Okay. So, just look at me while
you're standing in that position. I'm
going to explain to you how to perform
the test. Okay. So, from you to me,
you're going to do nine heel to toe
steps and you're going to count out loud
while you're doing them. Okay. Once you
do the first sequence of nine, you're
going to do a series of small steps and
then do nine back. I'm going to
demonstrate it for you. I'm going to do
three, but you're going to do nine,
okay? For my demonstration. So, like I
said, you're going to start in the
position that I told you, and you're
going to go one, two, three. You're
going to go to nine. You're going to do
a series of small steps like so. And
then you're going to do nine back. So,
nine towards me, nine back. Can you get
back in the position, please? Back in
the starting position.
Okay.
Do you understand the test? Yep. Okay. I
don't understand the small steps, but
we'll get You don't understand what? I'm
sorry. I don't really get the small step
aspects. Okay, I'll explain it to you
again. So, with your feet like this,
heel to toe, right? You're going to take
nine steps like this. Okay? And you're
going to count out loud as you're doing
this. I got that. Okay. So, you're going
to do that from get back in the starting
position, please.
All right. I can't I can't stand up.
Okay. Hands to your side. All right. If
you understand the test, you may begin.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
and I turn around and do the same way I
explained it to you. That's the part I
was confused for the tiny steps. You
said they were tiny steps. You just you
just turn around. Just turn around and
do nine back.
Okay. All right. So, the next test
you're going to do, just stand right
here in front of the car. Yeah. All

um, while I explain, just keep your feet
together like so and your hands at your
side. Okay. Just stand just like that
while I explain. Okay. Uh, the next test
is going to be the onelegged stand. So,
um, do you have any injuries that would
prevent you from doing it? Like in terms
of can you stand on one leg? My toe is
black. Can are you able to lift your toe
or can you lift your feet up? Can you
move? I mean, you were walking fine. I
just want to make sure that I mean I

spider behind me. Don't worry about the
spider. So, keep your feet together,
hands at your side. Okay? So, what
you're going to do is you're going to
pick whatever leg of your choosing and
you're going to lift that leg up 6 in
off the ground with your foot face
downward like this. Okay? While your
hands are at your side. All right? When
you get in that position, you're going
to be counting in the following manner.
1 2 100 3 100 and so on until I tell you
to stop. Okay? While you're just give me
a sec while you're doing it. All right,

What's the point of a PBA card? That
gets you out of a standard traffic
violation. So that's it. Even when your

driver's side. It's one thing being
parked on the side of the road. Um, you
were literally right. I was parked. No.

that's not the law, but did you guys
pull me over driving that time? No. But
thank you. You were still operating the

just waited. That was not pulled over. I
was in the middle of the road. Sorry,
but when somebody jumps out of your car,
it's a little upsetting. my car and
they're my ride or something or whatever
the case may be. I probably go after
them and not fall asleep in the car.

understand what I've been through for
the past few weeks.
