A woman was arrested for DUI and leaving the scene of an accident late Thursday night after she was involved in multiple collisions—including one in the Hopkinsville Police Department employee parking lot.
A police report says 32-year old Jessica Cates of Hopkinsville drove the wrong direction into the parking lot behind HPD that’s reserved for officers and employees and struck a city-owned trailer. She then backed up and fled the scene, driving over a curb to get back onto West First Street.
Officers found her in the parking lot of the post office, where she had struck another vehicle.
Police say she performed poorly on field sobriety tests and admitted to striking another car and a fence at Discount Liquors.
