A Tampa woman was arrested after authorities said she caused a crash while under the influence Thanksgiving night.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, Emily Frances Diaz, 29, of Tampa, was driving south on I-275 near I-4 when she changed lanes, crashing her Honda CR-V into a Subaru Outback driven by a 25-year-old Tampa woman.
Diaz’s CRV then spun out of control and flipped while the Outback was run off road and into a concrete barrier wall.
Troopers said Diaz suffered a minor injury during the crash. She also blew a breath alcohol sample of .205, over two times the legal limit, according to the FHP.
The other Tampa woman was not injured.
Diaz was arrested on a DUI charge.
