A Dundee woman was arrested after Penn Yan Police responded to a complaint on South Avenue of a woman asleep at the wheel with her car in reverse and not moving.
Upon speaking with Sarah Swarthout, police say she displayed several signs of intoxication along with an odor of an alcoholic beverage. Swarthout was placed through several Standardized Field Sobriety Tests and subsequently placed under arrest for DWI. She was then transported to the Yates County Jail to perform a chemical breath test and later transported to the Penn Yan Police Department for processing.
Swarthout was then released on tickets and will appear in Penn Yan Village Court at a later date.
