4 Drunk Driving Arrests, 1 Woman: Police

Delaware State Police say a woman convicted three times of drunken driving has been arrested again for driving under the influence.

Police say 33-year-old Tyra Martin of Dover was arrested early Sunday after a trooper saw a vehicle being driven erratically as it left the parking lot of a Camden restaurant.

Authorities say the trooper smelled alcohol after stopping Martin, who was alone in the vehicle.

Police say they subsequently determined that Martin had been convicted of DUI twice in 2006 and again in 2013.

Martin was charged with fourth offense DUI, driving while her license was suspended or revoked, failure to have proof of insurance in her possession, and failure to yield the right of way.

She was being held in lieu of posting $5,025 cash bond.
