Around 5:30 PM on Tuesday, Casey County Deputy Austin Harris observed a 2012 Ford Fusion crossing over the yellow line into the oncoming lane on KY-198. During the traffic stop, 58-year-old Connie Crosier appeared shaky and disoriented and couldn’t locate proof of insurance.
K9 Nitro alerted on the front doors of the car, and Crosier mentioned that the only thing in the vehicle should be a Neurontin pill by the passenger seat.
Deputy Jacob Atwood arrived to assist with the search. After the search, Deputy Harris questioned Crosier about her condition. She admitted to taking two Neurontins, which she was prescribed.
Neurontin, also known as gabapentin, can cause side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and unsteadiness, which can impair driving ability.
Ms. Crosier failed the Standard Field Sobriety Tests and was arrested and taken to Casey County Jail on charges of DUI-substance and reckless driving.
