She stopped but then attempted to drive forward when the officer was in front of the cart. The lieutenant moved out of the way, however, the driver ran over his foot in the process.

When another officer began to interview the driver, identified as Kelly L. Haney, she stated she saw the barricades but disregarded them because the route was the only way to get to the parking garage. The suspect stated she did not intend to run over the lieutenant’s foot.

During the conversation, the officer smelled alcohol on the suspect’s breath and noticed she had slurred speech. When questioned, she stated she had two glasses of champagne approximately one hour prior.
