HERNANDO COUNTY, Fla — A woman was charged with DUI after she crashed into a home in Spring Hill, resulting in over $10,000 in damage, the Florida Highway Patrol said Monday.

According to FHP, a 29-year-old woman was driving on Spring Hill Drive around 10 p.m. Sunday when she lost control of her vehicle. The car then crashed into a home on the 1300 block of Autumn Road.

The driver claimed that a vehicle pulled in front of her before striking the house. FHP said the driver refused a field sobriety test and admitted to drinking earlier.

Two people were in the home at the time of the crash.
