BROWNINGTON — A 51-year-old woman from Brighton was arrested following an incident in Brownington yesterday.
Police say they pulled up to a vehicle on Vermont Route 58 and the driver, identified as Amber Brooks, was slumped over the wheel at around 12:20 p.m.
Police allege that Brooks was under the influence of intoxicants.

She was transported to Northern State Correctional Facility with court-ordered conditions of release that she not be released until sober, and that she only be released to a court-appointed responsible adult.
She was cited in court today to answer to the offenses of DUI #3, resisting arrest, and assault on a protected professional.
