Kathryn Dennis could not recall exactly when the three-car collision occurred that led up to her DUI arrest on Monday, according to the incident report obtained by RadarOnline.com which detailed how she wound up in custody.
Dashcam footage from her run-in with the cops was released on Thursday, showing the former Southern Charm reality star completing field sobriety tests before she was cuffed and placed into a squad car.
Dennis felt the arrest was unjust when the officer instructed the reality star to put her hands behind her back. "Wait why? Am I in trouble?" she asked.
"Y'all are ruining my life — and my kids' [lives]," she declared after being apprehended.
An officer noted in the report that he had walked over to her car after arriving at the scene of the crash in South Carolina around 9 PM.
"I went to the vehicle and noticed an unopened mini bottle of Fireball on the driver's side floorboard," the cop stated. "I located Ms. Dennis who was holding a dog and being checked out by EMS. While standing near Ms. Dennis, I could smell an odor consistent with the odor of alcoholic beverages emanating from her."
"I conducted a search of her brown dog bag and located several mini bottles of Fireball, some of which were opened and empty," the officer's report read.
Dennis' vehicle allegedly hit one of the cars from the rear, causing it to collide with another vehicle in front of them while they were stopped at a red light, according to the other drivers. One expressed wanting to press charges while the other did not.
The Bravolebrity told officers she had gone out that night to meet friends and record a podcast, which did not work out so she went to "The Standard" apartment complex to see her pal.
Three field sobriety tests were done and there were "clues" in all that led them to believe she was under the influence.
The officer determined "probable cause existed for the charge of Driving Under the Influence."
After she was taken into custody, "I secured Ms. Dennis in cell number two while I obtained her criminal history and booking paperwork," according to the officer who stated that she refused a breathalyzer test.
She ultimately admitted to drinking "way earlier," per the report.
Dennis has yet to speak out after the bodycam footage showed her pleading to be reunited with her dog and denying wrongdoing.
"I want my dog!" Dennis yelled out in the footage, stating that she only cared about the well-being of her kids and pet. "I want my puppy! Please let me have my puppy."
