Napa woman with 5 DUIs arrested on suspicion of drunk driving [View all]

A Napa woman was jailed this weekend after the California Highway Patrol allegedly caught her driving under the influence of alcohol for the sixth time.

Ixchel Susan Rollins, 45, was driving a BMW 540 on U.S. Highway 101 in Petaluma on Friday when she was pulled over at about 2:15 p.m., according to the CHP.

Rollins, who has five prior DUI convictions over the last 10 years, allegedly failed field sobriety tests and was arrested for felony DUI, the CHP said.
