An Oregon coast woman was arrested for drunk driving after she rolled her station wagon in Prineville Saturday afternoon, claiming she was distracted when a puppy jumped into her lap, Crook County Sheriff’s deputies said.
44-year old Mona Lisa Seeling of Netarts, Oregon and her passenger were not injured in the accident that occurred about 4:30 p.m. near the intersection of Combs Flat Road and Carey Foster Road, Sgt. Jim Chapman reported.
Seeling told deputies she was traveling south on Combs Flat Road in a 1986 Subaru wagon when she lost control after her puppy jumped into her lap, causing her vehicle to slide, roll over, and land on its top.
