Woman arrested despite moonwalking during field sobriety test

A suspected drunk driver in Corpus Christi, Texas, showed off her dancing skills to police early on Friday morning when she was asked to perform a field sobriety test.

Senior Officer J. Rhodes observed a black Cadillac CTS parked in an intersection despite the fact the driver had a green light. The car then turned off and was travelling southbound in the northbound lane.



Officer Rhodes pulled the Cadillac over and spoke with the driver Coral Li Rape, 23, who appeared to be intoxicated and unwilling to cooperate with police. When asked to perform Standard Field Sobriety Tests, Rape "moonwalked" towards officers.

 Officer J. Sanders placed her under arrest and booked her at the City Detention Center where she was also given a Breath Test. Rape was charged with Driving While Intoxicated with a Blood Alcohol Content over .15 which is a Class "A" Misdemeanor punishable by a year in jail and a $4,000 fine.
