Middletown Police Log: DUI Arrest After Reports of Erratic Driving

Elizabeth Mary Mulligan, 50, of 45 Pemberton Ave., Jamestown, was arrested at 9:30 p.m., Thurs., Feb. 9, for driving under the influence. According to the police report, Portsmouth PD issued a BOLO for a possible drunk driver after receiving a call that a silver car was “driving all over the roadway” on West Main Road near the Portsmouth line. A Middletown officer in the area reportedly observed a car drifting across the center lane and back, and performed a traffic stop.

In speaking to the driver, the officer observed that Mulligan appeared confused; in response to the officer’s question about why she was swerving Mulligan allegedly said the car had a steering issue. Mulligan reportedly said her bad knees would prevent her from performing the walk-and-turn field sobriety test. Mulligan was transported to Newport Hospital, where she reportedly refused medical treatment but agreed to a chemical test of her blood. She was then transported to the police station for processing.
