Yeah. >> Okay. >> Tonight, officers responded to a call about a 19-year-old female who had been driving under the influence. She lost control of her vehicle, crashing into a guardrail and a stop sign. Debris from the crash caused another vehicle to hit it, but fortunately, no one was seriously injured. When officers approached, the driver became emotional and started crying as she realized she was being arrested. >> How's it going, man? >> I called about um them a minute ago. I was right behind them uh going this way. I just looked back around to see if they were okay. >> Okay. Yeah, they're good. Um they're climbing EMS. Um do you know what happened? Well, I was I was coming back from the gym and um it it was a white 4ERunner, [Music] >> so I don't know. It was I saw them go down in the ditch and then they went up and across both lanes and into the median. >> Okay. >> But um I don't know. It scared me so bad. >> No, I I get it, man. >> I get it. So, but you saw this vehicle do just that. >> It wasn't It wasn't that vehicle.

I'm sorry to bother you. >> You're good, man. >> Hey, were you guys involved? >> He I saw him coming right at my truck. He was coming over that medium and I don't know. I I did my best to make sure I steered clear of him. something from his vehicle or something from whatever he hit hit the truck, but I don't know exactly where. I just heard a big huge bang on it >> and I don't see I mean I don't see any dents and I don't know about the windshield. >> All right. >> But he scared me. >> I got you >> half to death. >> I got you. If you just hang out over there, ma'am, in case one of these other cars hits, I don't I don't want you to get get hurt. Um, I'm not seeing really anything. And this is kind of a bad spot to just have you look, like I said, I don't want one of these vehicles end up rear ending you and then vaulting the vehicle into you. Um, >> are they okay? >> Yeah, they're they're okay. Um, >> that's that really scared me. I saw It was like this. I was coming this way. >> Let's stand on the other side of this door. >> Saw the the light. >> Uhhuh. >> Literally coming at me. I was coming this way. Normally I drive on this side cuz I've had too many deer run into me, right? >> I know. Stay away from the side. So I as soon as I saw the lights coming, I moved out of the lake. >> Yeah. And then I got back in to get over, but I saw him just wrapped up in all of that. I >> I got you. All right. Um here, I'm going to get your license plate and some information from you and then we'll just kind of go from there. >> Do you need my driver's license? >> Yes, ma'am. If you have it. Okay. >> But it was I mean it's dark out. I can't really see. >> Yeah. So, I know there was something that came flying across it. They could have hit a rock. I mean, that could have been >> there. There was a lot of debris up there. It could have been any number of things. >> So, that could have been what flew across and hit. >> Okay. >> You know, >> and uh you saw the vehicle coming through back there. >> I saw him. Yes, he No, no, he moved down a little farther. >> Okay. So, where whereabouts did you see him leave the roadway? >> Oh, good grief. Um, I would have to walk down that way. >> Just a best estimate. >> Um, okay. Maybe one or two before where he ended up. >> Okay. >> Something like that. And did they >> she would these things there was there was another car that after that I was sitting here they were down there >> they saw >> Okay. Did uh did they ever end up in this part of the roadway coming towards you or was it just from the side >> that you saw? >> I saw them from the side actually on that. >> Okay. >> So I mean it was that scared the heck out of me. Yeah. Um, all right. Well, I'm going to go up there and talk to my other officer. Um, just hang out for me and then I'll be back and talk. >> Do you have your driver's license? >> Yeah, I do. >> All right. Can I see it, please? [Music] Yeah, >> we're we're on the loop. >> We're on the loop at Taly Road. Awesome. Thank you much. >> All right. It's just something I ask everybody that's been in a big accident. Nothing to drink, anything like that tonight. Right. Okay. All right. Awesome. If you want to just hang out with your car, I'll be right back with you. Okay. Do you need an ambulance? All right. Would you check if uh that vehicle, their driver, if that's the one that's had a drink? >> Central, do you know which driver the reference about the drink was for? Thank you. Watch your step over here. There's a bunch of holes. I don't want you to roll your ankle. Here's your driver's license. Can you step it back over here with me? >> Yeah. >> That way we're on some more level ground. >> All right. Can you explain to me why it happened again? >> I'm sorry. >> It's all right. >> So I turn this way and then >> Okay. How much you had to drink tonight? I'm an empty drink. >> Okay, don't lie to me. All right. I smell the alcohol off of your breath. How much have you had to drink tonight? >> Okay. Why do you lie to me? >> All right. You care if I check your eyes. Make sure you're okay to drive. That's okay with you. >> Well, I can drive. >> Well, I I know you can't drive now, but you do you care if I check your eyes? >> Yeah, of course. >> Okay. All right. We'll just face away from the lights. So, just just the way you are. Just stand with your feet together, arms down to your side for me. Okay. Look right here at this red light for me. Follow it with your eyeballs and your eyeballs only. Don't move your head. Okay. >> Keep your head perfectly still for me. Okay. >> Do you wear contacts or glasses? Yeah. All right. Here's a case card. It's got my name, uh, badge number, and case number associated with this. I won't be primary on this, but if you have any questions regarding it, or if anything comes up, go ahead, reach out, and I can give you any more details. Report for it will be ready approximately, I don't know, 6 to seven business days. Um, you can also request a copy of the report via the open records act at our east precinct. Um, other than that, do you have any questions for me? >> No, sweetie. I don't. They're they're okay. >> Yes, ma'am. She's going to jail. >> Oh. >> Yes, ma'am. >> I was lucky. >> Yeah. Yes. >> Okay. Um, honestly, it's a great thing, you know, that you weren't really involved in an accident because it could have tor turned out a lot worse. It was more than likely just debris in the roadway that your car hit. Um, which saves a whole lot with the insurance purposes, all that. Um, insurance rates going up for essentially nothing. So, uh, save there. And I'm just glad that you weren't hurt and nothing worse came out of this. But do you have any questions for me, ma'am? >> No, thank you. But thank you, sweetheart. >> Yes, ma'am. I hope you have a better night. >> I do, too, baby. >> Up and down. Okay. If you need to take a break, close your eyes. You're good.

I mean, so you've been lying to me and I I asked you >> I said two earlier. >> You told me one earlier. Well, first you told me nothing. I asked you how much you had to drink and you said you hadn't had a thing. So you've been lying over and over again. So that's all right, though. We're going to get you placed in the car. Okay. Um so that way we can get you sat down. I'm going to bring your phone and your wallet with us. Uh your keys are going to have to stay here cuz the tow truck's got to get your car. Okay.

It was a really, really bad wreck, but she is safe and healthy. I'm going to take her over to um I'll give you a call here in a little bit. Depending on how long the hospital takes, I might just cut her a citation and see if you guys can't come pick her up. Where are you guys coming from? Atlanta. I'll let the hospital staff know that she's okay to have visitors. If she does not go to jail, then I'm going to write her tickets and leave her at the hospital to be treated if there are any injuries. Okay. But as far as right now, she doesn't look injured at all. Yeah. If you want to go ahead and leave and come out here, um you can come on up to the hospital. So, I'm sure we'll be there for quite some time.
