She drove drunk on way to Bible study class

Police said a Fremont, New Hampshire woman drove drunk on way to Sunday morning Bible study class.

Mary Lou Kohlhofer failed to negotiate a Dunkin' Donuts drive-through and crashed into a fence doing considerable damage to her car. She was arrested on a charge of aggravated driving while intoxicated.

Arresting officer Rochelle Jones said the aggravated charge was levied because after Kohlhofer displayed signs of intoxication during a field sobriety test, she agreed to take a Breathalyzer test and her blood alcohol concentration was above the .16 threshold for the more-serious aggravated charge. Jones said Kohlhofer "was above the legal limit" and admitted she drank wine before driving.
