Naylor arrived on scene and observed the Knight’s vehicle, a black 2003 GMC Envoy off the right side of Frantz Road with its front end into a tree.

Naylor saw front-end damage to Knight’s vehicle, and saw Knight standing outside her vehicle.

Police said her speech was slurred and she was off balance and swaying.

Knight denied consuming any alcohol that day, though she did admit to taking lorazepam, which she is not supposed to be taking while operating a vehicle.

Field sobriety tests were conducted on Knight, and the results of the test showed signs of impairment.

Knight was transported to the Monroe County Correctional Facility to submit to a chemical blood test.

The test confirmed that lorazepam and metroprolol was in Knight’s bloodstream.
