A Florida woman was arrested and charged with driving under the influence Saturday night after she live streamed herself driving drunk on Periscope.
The Lakeland Police Department received multiple calls Saturday night about a possible drunk driver. WTSP reported multiple texts were sent to the driver who was streaming worldwide asking her to stop before she killed herself or someone else.
At one point during the live stream, the driver, identified as Whitney Beall, 23, said she was "drunk" and "f---ing drunk."
Police found Beall via landmarks shown in the video. They said she failed a field sobriety test and was arrested and charged with DUI.
Beall is being held in the Polk County Jail.
