A Vero Beach woman who was arrested on charges of DUI and cocaine possession told a Florida State Tropper “eat me” when asked for a breath test.
Say hello to Kate Santana, 29, who was traveling on U.S. Highway 1 near SR 60 when a trooper from the Florida Highway Patrol saw her drive through a red traffic light and stopped the car.
The officer smelled alcohol and asked her why she didn’t stop at the light, and she said, “I thought it was a flashing light." She told the trooper that she went to Hurricane’s (Grill and Wings) to meet her boyfriend who works there at which point they walked to “Stix” near the bowling alley.
As I know the area well, the intersection of 60 and US1 is only a couple traffic lights away. Stix is a pool hall located in the same strip mall area as Hurricanes.
Santana stuck to the classic "1 beer" story and agreed to perform some sobriety exercises. Then she told the trooper, “It’s nothing to me. I’m still good. I’m from Puerto Rico, I’m good.” Apparently, Puerto Ricans walk in a straight line while drunk better than the rest of us, however, I can't find any data to confirm this.
Santana was arrested and brought to the county jail. Naturally, she was still oblivious as to why she was arrested and told the trooper that her boyfriend Tyler ate “Coke.” Then she asked the trooper, “Are you stupid?”
Not to leave any possible story or excuse out, Santana also threw in that she was once married to a trooper.
She then agreed, then changed her mind, about taking a breath test. When asked if she understood her rights, she replied, “eat me.” When asked if she wished to answer any questions, “she extended her middle finger” towards the trooper, according to the report.
This fun night has resulted in Santan being charged with Felony Possession Cocaine, Possession Drug Paraphernalia, Misdemeanor DUI, and Operating while suspended/revoked with knowledge.
