Woman charged after car slams into tree in Hinckley

Nobody was injured in the crash.

It happened in the early hours of Sunday (11th July) on Tudor Road.

43-year-old Gail Smith will appear at Loughborough Magistrates Court later this month. 

The post on Hinckley Police's Facebook page said they hoped the picture would serve as a 'timely reminder' about the dangers of driving under the influence.

A police spokesperson said:

"The charge relates to an incident which happened in the early hours of Sunday 11 July.

"Gail Smith, 43, is due to appear at Loughborough Magistrates’ Court on 28 July."
