Muncie, IN – An Indiana woman suspected of DUI was taken back into custody after police say she fled a police station and ran to her home almost three miles away.
According to a probable cause affidavit, Brandy Star Williams, 31, was arrested early Friday after police officers saw her vehicle hit a curb and exceed the speed limit. She was stopped and a portable breath test measured Williams’ BAC to be 0.188 percent.
Williams was taken to a police station to undergo an official breath test. According to police, while seated and waiting – in handcuffs – next to Muncie police officer Michael Rehfus, Williams “stood up and she bolted out the door.” Rehfus’ report said Williams then “jumped over a railing and fled on foot.” Rehfus and other officers chased Williams on foot, but reportedly lost her about two-tenths of a mile away. Wow. Two-tenths…
“Officers in pursuit. [pant] Suspect now two-tenths of a mile northeast?!? [pant] She’s a freakin’ MACHINE!!! [pant]”
Williams would be located a short time later at her home – nearly three miles from the police station from which she had ‘hurriedly departed.’ She was taken back into custody.
Williams is preliminarily charged with escape from detention, theft, resisting law enforcement, reckless driving and driving while intoxicated. Williams was being held Friday at the Delaware County jail under a $28,500 bond.
Perhaps a work release position could be made available for Williams as a Muncie police fitness trainer. Lemons into lemon custard-filled long johns, people…
