Breastfeeding mother arrested for driving drunk

Police in Florida have arrested a 33-year-old mother after they say she was driving drunk with four small children in her car. Volusia County Sheriff's deputies say she was in her car breastfeeding her 2-month old child right before she failed their field sobriety tests.
This happened early on Tuesday morning in New Smyrna Beach. Deputies said they were pulling over Cateria Thomas for an altered temporary tag and a child unrestrained. According to Thomas' arrest report, deputies said the driver was sitting in the vehicle breastfeeding a small child after they pulled her over.
Deputies said she had red watery and glassy eyes, her speech was slow and slurred, and in the back seat were three children ages 1, 3 and 4. Deputies said during a field sobriety test, she was swaying and not steady. The Volusia County Sheriff's Office arrest report said Thomas would not agree to a breath test, but did advise she had four hamburgers with whiskey on them.
The Florida Department of Children and Families is doing background checks on relatives to find a place for the children, they said. Thomas is still in the Volusia County jail facing cahrges of unlawful alteration to her tag, operating with a suspended licence, a child act that could result in physical or mental injury and DUI.
