SHELBY COUNTY, Tenn. — A woman was arrested on multiple charges after crashing into a stationary Shelby County Sheriff’s Office vehicle early Saturday morning.
Anna Hays, 24, is charged with driving under the influence, failure to exercise due care, reckless driving and duty upon striking unattended vehicle.
