When police approached the vehicle, they noticed that the driver and the passenger had blood shot and glassy eyes. A field sobriety test was conducted on the driver and he was arrested for drunk driving.
The male driver told police that he had marijuana in the vehicle. The passenger, later identified as Katie Elizabeth Guzman, 27 of Temple Hills, was ordered to grab her dog from the backseat and exit the vehicle.

Officers grabbed Guzman by the arms and carried her to their vehicle
Guzman was arrested and charged with hindering, obstruction, resisting arrest. Guzman was released a short while later on her own recognizance and is due in district court on January 16, 2019.
