A thirty-eight-year-old LaFayette woman is facing DUI and other charges after wrecking her vehicle off Highway 27 in Chattooga County, last week. Christy Corene Hogue was arrested after attempting to walk away from the crash scene.  She failed a field sobriety test and was charged with DUI.  Pills and a baggie of hydrocodone were found on her person later.  Her vehicle left the Highway in Trion and struck several objects, including a gas meter. In addition to DUI, Hogue was charged with obstruction, financial card theft and fraud, crossing the guard line with drugs and tampering with evidence.
