Holmes Beach police arrested Darlene Kerr, 61, of Midland, Michigan, March 8 for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol.
Police observed a vehicle with Kerr at the wheel, stationary in the intersection of Gulf Drive and Manatee Avenue around 12:24 a.m., according to a Holmes Beach Police Department report.
She told an HBPD officer that she had consumed alcohol before driving, so she was asked to perform field sobriety tests, which HBPD said she failed.
Two breath samples had results of 0.187 milligrams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood. The state’s legal blood alcohol limit for driving under the influence is 0.08.
Kerr was arrested on a second-degree misdemeanor and transported to the Manatee County jail, where she was released the same day on $500 bond.
If convicted, punishment includes up to 60 days in jail and a fine of up to $500.
An arraignment will be at 8:55 a.m. Thursday, April 11, at the Manatee County Judicial Center, 1051 Manatee Ave. W., Bradenton.
