A Whitehouse woman was arrested for being so intoxicated that she was nearly struck by two vehicles in the downtown area on Sunday (Sept. 14) around 1:37 a.m.
A Bowling Green Police officer was at the four corners downtown when he reportedly saw a pedestrian, Brianna Borer, 29, run across the road from South Main Street toward North Main Street, and narrowly missed being struck by a vehicle. Borer then reportedly dropped something in the roadway and bent down to pick it up, and was almost struck by a second vehicle.
Borer then reportedly fell in the roadway onto her hands and knees. When she attempted to stand up, she fell a second time onto her hands and knees and then rolled onto her back.
By this time, east and westbound traffic had the green traffic signal and all westbound traffic had to yield to Borer until she cleared the roadway.
The officer approached Borer, and asked if she had identification. She reportedly said she did, but then refused to let the officer see it. As officers tried to arrest her, she refused to get into the police vehicle. Once inside, she reportedly slipped the handcuffs. She again resisted being cuffed and put in the vehicle.
Borer was arrested for disorderly conduct – unable to care for herself, obstructing official business, and resisting arrest. She was taken to Wood County Jail.
