DUI: Alyssa Coley found passed out in drivers seat
27-year-old Alyssa Coley was found passed out in her driver’s seat by NFD on November 12. Officers attempted to break the passenger side of the window because Coley was unresponsive to officers’ attempts to wake her. When awake, Coley told officers that she was driving home from a party and began feeling tired, so she pulled over to nap. She also started to say to officers that she only had one and a half drinks but later told them that she had mixed three drinks before driving home. Coley was observed to be heavily intoxicated, so officers took her to the hospital for a field sobriety test and a blood sample. Coley was taken into custody and charged with DUI.
