Angela Green’s evening of bar-hopping on her 21st birthday wound up with her crawling around on the floor of the police station in wet pants.
A birthday celebration that went from margaritas at Coal Street Pub to Panz Allegra restaurant became a police call when a witness told Gallup Police Officer Dominic Molina Oct. 2, 2020 that there had been a fender bender in the parking lot around 8 pm.
The witness said a Ford Explorer had backed into a Pontiac before taking off across the parking lot, running over a concrete parking barrier and coming to a stop. According to police reports, once the Explorer stopped, the driver and passenger switched seats before the Explorer drove back to where the Pontiac was parked, nearly running over a man walking across the lot.
Molina spoke to the original driver, Angela Green, 21. He described her as smelling of alcohol and slurring her speech. He also said she had urinated on herself. She admitted to driving and also said she had been drinking.
She agreed to take the field sobriety tests, but could not stand upright. She was handcuffed and taken to the police station.
At the station, Green agreed to provide a breath sample, but she bit the mouthpiece instead of blowing into it, resulting in a refusal. As Molina was typing up the report, Green fell out of her chair and crawled around the floor before finding her way back into the chair. She was booked for DWI and failing to report striking an unattended vehicle.
