An 18-year-old Kenmore woman has been arrested after allegedly driving along Elmwood Avenue in Buffalo at about 100 MPH with no headlights on, swerving at high speeds around one car and driving along sidewalks in Kenmore for a time before she got back on the road.

She was arrested at gunpoint when forced to stop for heavy traffic about 9:45 p.m. Friday on Elmwood at Hertel Avenue.

Taylor S. Bork of Wabash Avenue was arrested by Police Officers Donald Genovese and Albert Monteforte and Lt. Mary Hanley. After failing field sobriety tests she was taken to Buffalo Police Headquarters where a breath test showed a blood alcohol content of 0.20 per cent. The legal limit for driving is 0.08 per cent.

A cup filled with brandy and an open bottle of brandy and marijuana were found in her car.

In addition to being charged with three counts of drunken driving, she was charged with first-degree reckless driving, unlawful possession of marijuana, drinking in public places, reckless driving, changing lanes unsafely, having inadequate lights and speeding.
