23-year-old Brianna Cox was seen driving 94mph in a 70mph zone on I-24 East on July 19th. Officers observed this and initiated a traffic stop. When Cox exited her car, she was seen stumbling to the rear of her car to meet with officers. Once officers began questioning her, they noticed that Cox reeked of alcohol. During the investigation, officers observed multiple signs of intoxication, so they prompted Cox to perform sobriety tests. Cox never gave officers an answer, so she was taken into custody for driving under the influence. After being taken into custody, Cox refused to provide blood and breath tests. Officers asked for Cox’s name and date of birth, and she stated that her name was Brianna Rucker, with a date of birth of July 12th, 2001. Officers conducted an arrest search of her vehicle and found her actual ID. Officers also located an open container of a canned alcoholic cocktail and a plastic cup that smelt like an alcoholic beverage. It was later observed that Cox’s temporary tag on her vehicle was drawn over on a date different from the original. Officers ran Cox’s license and discovered that it was suspended. Brianna Cox was transported to booking and charged with driving under the influence, suspended license, no registration, open container, reckless driving, and criminal trespassing.
