SPRING HILL, Fla. -- Authorities said a woman bared her chest to a deputy during a weekend DUI stop.
A deputy was sent to the intersection of Cortez Boulevard and Commercial Way to investigate multiple reports of a reckless driver around 9 p.m. Friday.
On arrival, the deputy saw traffic driving around a black Mercedes stopped at the intersection. The car was pulled over at Commercial Way and Country Lane and as the deputy stepped out of his cruiser, he noticed the Mercedes was in reverse gear.
Despite the deputy's shouts to "stop," the Mercedes continued its path into the cruiser's front bumper. As the car's driver, Tina Lopez, 49, stepped out of the car, she grabbed the deputy's arm multiple times to keep her balance, according to a report.
Lopez showed other signs of intoxication, so she was asked to perform field sobriety tests, which she reportedly failed. The suspect was arrested on suspicion of DUI and, while the deputy waited for backup, "felt it necessary" to expose her chest, a report states.
She was taken to the county jail on charges of DUI and DUI with property damage, where she reportedly supplied a blood alcohol level of .111 and .108. Florida law presumes intoxication at .08.
