MILWAUKEE (WITI-TV) — Although blood tests showed she was perfectly sober, a woman was seriously injured and arrested for drunk driving after a Milwaukee County Sheriff’s deputy crashed into her car.

Tanya Weyker, 25, was hurt so badly, she couldn’t blow into a breath-testing device or perform field sobriety tests, WITI-TV in Milwaukee reports.

Weyker’s neck was broken in four places in the crash.

Doctors placed metal rods in Tanya Weyker's neck to hold the broken bones in place.
