the vehicle had collided with a telephone phone on Route 109 in Belvidere

Center. The operator and sole occupant of the vehicle was identified as

Elizabeth Minor, 32, of Lowell. Minor showed several indicators of impairment,

and once she was medically cleared, she was arrested for driving under the

influence of alcohol (second offense), and driving with a criminally suspended

license. The telephone pole Minor struck was severed in half, and needed to be

replaced. Minor was subsequently released with a citation ordering her to appear

at the Lamoille County Superior Court Criminal Division on August 18, 2021 at
