On March 24, 2025 shortly after 10:00 PM, Officer Cassandra Martinez with the Villa Park Police Department was advised by dispatch that the neighboring Elmhurst Police Department observe a vehicle being driven erratically while traveling westbound on West Avenue from North Avenue. She located a black 2024 Mazda matching the description of the suspect vehicle stopped at a red light at the intersection with Addison Road. As she began following the car, she observed the driver continue to swerve before almost striking another red Toyota. At this point, she activated her emergency lights to initiate a traffic stop and the driver pulled over. She made contact with the driver, who was identified as 23-year-old Jacqueline Sandoval. She told the officer that she was heading home from Chicago after going to a restaurant with her boyfriend. He asked her if she had anything to drink, but she denied consuming any alcohol. However, Officer Martinez still suspected she was impaired and asked her to exit the vehicle and perform field sobriety exercises after another officer arrived on scene to assist. Her performance on the field sobriety exercises confirmed the officer’s suspicion of impairment. Following the field sobriety exercises, she was given an opportunity to submit to a PBT. The results of the PBT indicated a BAC level of 0.162%, which was more than double the legal limit of 0.08%. Based on the her erratic driving, the odor of alcohol, her indicators of impairment, her inability to satisfactorily complete the field sobriety exercises, and the results of the PBT, Officer Martinez placed Jacqueline under arrest for driving under the influence. She was handcuffed, placed in the patrol car, and transported to the Villa Park Police Department for further processing. While she was being transported to the station, she slipped her cuffs inside the prisoner compartment of the patrol car. At the Villa Park Police Department, the Warning to Motorist form was read to her but she refused to provide adequate breath samples. After she was processed at the station, she was eventually released with the following summonses pending her court appearance: -Driving under the influence - alcohol (625 ILCS 5/11-501(a)(2)) -Improper lane usage (625 ILCS 5/11-709(a)) ------------------------------------- Please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and consider supporting this channel (email us for more information).
