Driver under influence in crash


April 08,2016
 
KILLINGTON — A Middlebury woman is accused of driving under the influence after veering off the road early Thursday.

Vermont State Police responded to a report of a single-vehicle crash on Dean Hill Road just before 1:30 a.m. When they arrived, they found a 2000 Dodge Durango off the roadway and down an embankment, they said.

Police said the driver, Catharine Lobo, 23, had been driving west when her vehicle left the road and struck several trees.

Lobo, who was sitting in another vehicle near the scene, displayed signs of impairment, according to police.

A preliminary breath sample revealed her breath alcohol content to be 0.170, more than twice the legal limit, police said.

Lobo was cited and released to appear in Rutland criminal court on April 25.
