On April 19th, 25-year-old Kyla Crump was taken into custody for driving under the influence near Poplar Avenue. When officers arrived, they spoke with Crump, who insisted she only had a shot of alcohol and two mixed drinks. Crump also said she was driving her vehicle before her friend, Jametris Perry, grabbed the steering wheel. She stated this caused the car to enter the emergency lane, striking a trailer connected to a Ford F-250. Officers were unable to conduct a sobriety test due to Crump having a knee injury and having asthma. Officers then requested a whiskey unit after placing Crump into custody, and her blood was drawn subsequently. Crump was taken into custody for failure to exercise due care, driving under the influence, reckless driving, public intoxication, no driver’s license, and violation of financial law.
Kyla Chiann Crump was booked into the Shelby County Jail on April 19th, charged with failure to exercise due care, driving under the influence of drugs, no insurance, reckless driving, public intoxication, and no drivers license. A judicial commissioner set her bond at $1,000.
