As Ontiveros stood up to retrieve documents from her car, she stumbled several times and almost fell.She was asked to complete field sobriety tests, but declined because she was "unable to walk." She did consent to blood testing, initially wanting the officer to draw the blood right there in the street.She was transported to the Schuylkill Medical Center, Pottsville, for the test.Charges are pending the results of those tests.
