Failure to Stop Leads to DUI Charge
Woman charged with driving under the influence and speeding.
On Nov. 29 around 8:56 p.m., officers observed a white BMW traveling through the intersection of Silvermine Road and Pocono Road at a high rate of speed. The BMW failed to stop for a posted stop sign and officers conducted a motor vehicle stop.
While conducting the stop, officers detected an odor of an alcoholic beverage on the operator’s breath.
