TAMPA - A Tampa woman was arrested after sideswiping a deputy's cruiser, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.
Jeannine Marie Canfield, 53, faces charges of driving under the influence, leaving the scene of a crash with damage, possession of a drug without a prescription and possession of a controlled substance.
Canfield caused $750 in damage to the cruiser that Deputy Jeffrey Catlin had parked on the east side of 15th Street just before 10 p.m. Thursday, authorities said.
Catlin, who stopped Canfield at 131st Avenue and Key Largo Road, reported that she had alcohol on her breath. Canfield also had 55 Valium pills in a prescription bottle with a conflicting label and 52 Flexural pills, for which she did not have a prescription, the sheriff's office said.
Canfield failed a field sobriety test and was taken to Orient Road Jail. She was released on $3,000 bail Friday afternoon, according to jail records.
