A Florida woman was arrested on a drunken driving charge early on Wednesday morning after Gainesville police say they found her asleep, partially clothed and in the driver's seat of a sport utility vehicle that was running at an intersection.
At 3:10am, the Gainesville Police Department received a call about a Lincoln Sport Utility Vehicle that had stopped in the middle of the road.
GPD arrived 10 minutes later and found the SUV still in the road and a woman, later identified by GPD as 31-year-old Casey Lynne McRae, from Lake Butler, asleep behind the wheel.
The automatic transmission of the vehicle was in the drive gear and McRae's foot was on the brake pedal, according to a jail booking report.
GPD officers banged on the windows of the Lincoln and eventually woke McRae, who was wearing a small white blouse that was inside out and backwards. Also, she only wore underwear, and a pair of jeans was found in the back seat of the vehicle, the report states.
McRae reeked of alcohol and her eyes were red and watery, the report said. She mumbled as she spoke and told GPD officers she believed she was in Lake Butler.
A breath test revealed she had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.14 percent, the report states.
Inside the SUV, officers found 20 grams of what they believed was marijuana and a pipe that smelled like burnt marijuana. There was also an unlabelled prescription bottle of pills, the report states.
McRae was charged with drunken driving, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was taken to the Alachua County jail, and she was released on her own recognizance on Wednesday morning.
