Evansville Woman Arrested for Impaired Driving with Kids

File

An Evansville woman is in jail accused of driving impaired with two children in the car. 

Indiana state troopers pulled over 41-year-old year old Amy Baker Tuesday afternoon when they noticed her minivan was drifting lanes on Stringtown Road near Olmsted Avenue.

According to a release, she showed obvious signs of impairment and failed a sobriety test. Her 15-year-old and 12-year-old children were in the car.

Her son and daughter were released to family but because Baker refused to submit to a chemical test, she is being held without bond in the Vanderburgh County jail.

Operating a vehicle while intoxicated with minors in the car is a level 6 felony. Baker could face up to two and a half years in prison.
