DUI, hit and run. A Palm Coast woman driving topless was arrested on a DUI charge with a blood alcohol content four times the legal limit.
The Sheriff’s Office received multiple calls about a crash where a Toyota Tacoma hit multiple vehicles and then fled the scene. A Sheriff’s Office deputy searched for the suspect’s Toyota Tacoma until he was flagged down by several witnesses at an intersection, where the Tacoma was stopped.
Two people were in the car, a man and a woman. The suspect driver, a 25-year-old woman, smelled strongly of alcohol, according to her arrest report said, and was partially clothed, only wearing a bra — upside down and unclasped — jean shorts and no shoes or shirt.
The deputy asked the woman to fix her bra so she wasn’t exposing herself, but the woman was ultimately "unable to fix it herself," the report said.
The suspect admitted to being drunk, and failed the on-scene sobriety tests. The deputy wrote in his report that the suspect was slurring her words the entire time, and at some points her “speech was not understandable.”
The suspect driver was taken to the county jail, where she blew a .250 on a breathalyzer. She was arrested but later was released from jail on $5,500 bond.

Assault. A Bunnell man was arrested after he threatened bank employees when there was a problem cashing his check.
The suspect walked into the bank and waited his turn in line. When it was his turn, he threw his driver’s license and a check on the counter and told the clerk he wanted it cashed.
The clerk tried to cash it, but told the suspect there was an error with the check. According to his arrest report, that’s when the man began to yell at the employees, refusing to leave until his check was cashed.
The man then began threatening the employees with what he had in his backpack and threatening to hit them. One employee called 911 while another hit bank's alarm.
The suspect, as it turned out, did not have any kind of weapon in his backpack. Instead, he sat in the lobby and ate a bag of chips until law enforcement arrived.
He was placed under arrest and taken to the county jail.
