A woman has been charged with DUI in connection to an officer-involved crash in Louisville Friday night.

While at the scene, 25-year-old Katelin Moody reportedly swerved multiple directions before striking a police cruiser.

An officer had to jump onto his vehicle to avoid being hit but was knocked off from the force of the collision. He suffered non-life threatening injuries to his head, neck, and back.

Police say Moody’s vehicle then hit a second cruiser, along with a third vehicle.

When police went to speak with her, they say she smelled of alcohol and had slurred speech. A preliminary breath test showed her blood-alcohol level at .139.

Moody was taken to the Louisville Metro Department of Corrections, where she is charged with DUI, assault of a police officer, and criminal mischief.
