21-year-old Keishonna Stewart yelled at police after she did not pull over immediately when they turned on their lights. Police flashed their lights at her after they saw her almost crash into another vehicle on Myatt Dr. When she pulled over in the center turn lane, she opened her door, and police saw a handgun under her driver’s seat. She refused to leave the vehicle when police commanded her to, so they had to pull her out. Keishonna resisted being placed into custody and refused to walk to the patrol car. Police noted the smell of alcohol on Keishonna and read her Miranda. While under Miranda, she willingly told police that she had drank “1 to 3 shots of Don Julio.” Police inventoried her vehicle and had it towed after she consented to a blood test.
Keishonna D. Stewart of Rio Vista Dr in Madison, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on August 30th, charged with two counts of reckless driving, driving under the influence, and possession of a weapon while under the influence. A judicial commissioner set her bond at $3,000, and the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office gave her pre-trial release from their facility.
