Peekskill Woman Faces DWI Charge

A 26-year-old Peekskill woman is facing a misdemeanor charge of driving while intoxicated, following a traffic stop on North Division Street, according to authorities.

When Woodland pulled over the woman and requested documents, she "appeared confused." She is accused of failing several field sobriety tests.

The defendant was held for arraignment pending a future court appearance.
