DUI driver reported by her passenger
A Ringgold woman was arrested on DUI charges after a passenger in her vehicle realized she was on drugs and called 911, police say.
According to the Catoosa County Sheriff’s Office:
Erica Brooke Arrington, 24, of Boofer Road, was arrested Jan. 31 on charges of DUI and endangering the life of a child while driving DUI.
Arrington has been released from jail on bond.
The incident occurred just before 8 p.m. Thursday night, Jan. 31, when Catoosa County dispatch received a complaint of a woman driving under the influence with a small child in the vehicle along U.S. 41 near Graysville Road.
The female caller said the driver, later identified as Arrington, picked her up and was acting very strange.
The woman said she tried to convince Arrington to let her drive instead, but that Arrington refused.
Deputy Deric North was able to catch up with the vehicle on Cloud Springs Road at Mack Smith Road, at which time he was able to confirm that there was a small child in the vehicle, reports show.
“Upon speaking with Ms. Arrington, I observed her speech to be very slurred and her movements slow,” Deputy North said.
Arrington participated in multiple unsuccessful field sobriety tests and was ultimately placed under arrest.
Arrington was believed to be under the influence of some sort of narcotic depressant, reports show.
The vehicle was turned over to the passenger in lieu of being towed.
Headlight stop leads to 3 drug arrests
Two Rossville men and their friend were arrested on drug charges after a faulty headlight led to the discovery of a large marijuana stash, police say.
According to the Catoosa County Sheriff’s Office:
Kechone Tavares Scott, 18, Marcelle Tyreke Scott, 18, both of Backdraft Lane in Rossville, and Kameron Nicholas Peters, 18, of Tunnel Boulevard in Chattanooga, Tennessee, were arrested Jan. 30 on charges of possession of marijuana and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute. All three have been released from jail on bond.
The trio’s run-in with law enforcement began just after midnight on Jan. 30 when they were spotted traveling along Mack Smith Road in Rossville down one headlight.
The driver, Kechone Scott, claimed he was driving the group from Ringgold to his Rossville home, but was headed to Chattanooga first to drop off Kameron Peters.
Deputy Joshua Moore said Scott seemed nervous when questioned and wouldn’t give definitive answers to questions.
Eventually, Deputy Moore says he could smell the odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. “I asked the occupants if there was anything in the car that I would find when I searched, and the passenger advised that there were ounces of marijuana in the glove compartment of the vehicle,” Moore said. “I located a large amount of green, leafy substance in the glove compartment of the vehicle.”
Digital scales were also found in the center console of the vehicle, reports show.
When questioned about the plans for the marijuana, Marcelle Scott claimed the men were “taking it to the Bojangles’ in Chattanooga for a guy.”
They were arrested without incident, and the Ford Fusion they were traveling in was turned over to a towing firm.
