Metro Nashville Police came upon a blue Hyundai Accent parked in the middle of a lane of travel at 5th & Broadway in the early hours of Saturday morning. As they approached the vehicle, 24-year-old Maria Takele also approached the car and stated she parked in the middle of the road because someone had hit her car earlier in a parking garage. Takele appeared to be extremely intoxicated and admitted she had been drinking prior to moving her car to the roadway. She performed poorly on field sobriety tests and was charged with DUI.
Marie Y. Takele of Stanhope St in Brooklyn, NY, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on February 4th, charged with implied consent violation and driving under the influence. A judicial commissioner set her bond at $2,500.
