Holmes Beach police arrested Bradenton resident Brianna Greene, 27, Sept. 17 on a second-degree misdemeanor for driving under the influence of alcohol.
Two officers saw a motorist around 2 a.m. estimated to be traveling about 70 mph in a 35-mph zone but were not able to activate their radar.
As they followed, they saw the motorist drive through a flashing red traffic signal without stopping.
The motorist entered the closed parking lot at the Manatee Public Beach, 4000 Gulf Drive, where the officers conducted a traffic stop.
The officers spoke with the driver, Greene, whose breath smelled of alcohol and eyes were glassy.
The officers asked Greene to exit the vehicle and perform field sobriety tests, which she failed.
The officers arrested Greene and transported her to the police department, where she provided breath samples with 0.105 and 0.106 grams of alcohol per 210 liters of breath, according to the report.
The legal limit for blood alcohol concentration while driving is 0.08.
An officer issued a citation and transported Greene to the Manatee County jail, where she was released the same day after posting $120 bond.
If convicted, punishment for a second-degree misdemeanor includes up to 60 days in jail, six months of probation and a fine of up to $500.
An arraignment is set for 8:55 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 20, at the Manatee County Judicial Center, 1051 Manatee Ave. W., Bradenton.
