According to police, Coffey had punched a side view mirror off of a passing truck and later became aggressive toward police, fighting one officer at the booking station, according to a police report.
A 47-year-old woman was ordered to attend an alcohol education program, will lose her license for 45 days and will pay $600 in court charges after submitting to sufficient facts on a drunken driving charge.
Maura D. Cronin of 1 Evans Way, Rockport, was arrested in May on charges of drunken driving and failing to drive within marked lanes on Route 128 in Gloucester.
Cronin was exciting Grant Circle onto Route 128 when officers observed her vehicle swerving, according to a police report. The officers pulled Cronin over and arrested her after she failed sobriety tests, according to a May 24 report.
