The Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office reports 55-year-old Angela Donice Jennings was arrested following a traffic stop in Trion. In the incident narrative, a deputy says Jennings was observed failing to maintain her lane and nearly striking another vehicle before both vehicles pulled into a nearby parking area, identified in the report as the United Community Bank location.

According to the report, the deputy noted signs consistent with impairment during the contact and began a DUI investigation. The narrative states Jennings discussed taking prescription medication, and deputies also documented items in the vehicle during the investigation.

The report says field sobriety testing was attempted, including tests such as the walk-and-turn and other coordination and timing evaluations; the narrative notes Jennings did not complete every test and describes performance issues observed during those tests. The listed charges include DUI – Multiple Substances (Less Safe Driver) and failure to maintain lane.

The report states Jennings was advised of Georgia implied consent and agreed to a blood draw, then was transported for the blood draw before being taken to the Chattooga County Jail. As always, an arrest is an accusation, and the case will be handled through the court process.
