Around 3:13 p.m. on March 22nd, 2023, Sergeant Joseph Barnacle with the Shrewsbury Police Department was contacted by patrolman Randy Bowler on a report of a motor vehicle accident. Patrolman Bowler had been flagged down by the driver of a silver 2020 to Mitsubishi on Broad Street, who told him that that she had been struck by the driver of a white Porsche. The Porsche allegedly struck the southbound driver on the side while exiting from a parking lot onto Broad Street just north of White Road.

He exited his patrol car and made contact with the driver of the Porsche and she was eventually identified as Nicole Hooser. Sergeant Barnacle asked Nicole if she had been in an accident. As Nicole opened the door to the vehicle, he immediately detected the odor of alcohol and observed other indicators of impairment. Based on his suspicion of impairment, he asked Nicole to exit the vehicle and perform field sobriety exercises. Hey, so she got uh she's off to the side up there.
