A witness said Phillips pulled into a nearby apartment parking lot after she struck the pedestrian. The witness said they saw Phillips holding an alcoholic drink in a can that “was mostly full,” the affidavit stated. She also had a dog inside of her car.

Phillips told police she was driving home after work in Plano, the affidavit stated. She said she was northbound on Abrams Road “in the middle or left lane” when she struck the man.

Multiple responding officers noted that Phillips had a “strong odor of alcoholic beverage,” according to the affidavit.

She also told an officer she had not taken any medications, and had not smoked or consumed illegal drugs, according to police.

When police asked her if she had drank alcohol she said “I plead the Fifth,” according to the court document. She also refused field sobriety tests.
