NORTH STONINGTON, Conn. — A North Stonington woman is facing multiple charges after a crash in October that resulted in several injuries.
State police said they took 26-year-old Mackenzie Balicki into custody Thursday on an arrest warrant.
On Oct. 31, 2021, troopers responded to the two-vehicle crash on Pendleton Hill Road in North Stonington. Five people, including a 4, 5, 65, and 78-year-old, along with Balicki, were all injured in the collision.
State police said that during the investigation, they determined Balicki had failed to maintain her lane and crossed the double yellow lines. Then, Balicki reportedly then crashed into an SUV, occupied by the 65 and 78-year-old.
Balicki had a 4-year-old child and an improperly restrained 5-year-old child in her car, police said.
Police also said Balicki had been intoxicated behind the wheel with a blood-alcohol level of over three times the legal limit of .08.
Balicki was charged with DWI with a child passenger, failure to drive in the proper lane, child seat belt violation, second-degree assault with a motor vehicle, and three counts of third-degree assault.
Balicki had her bond set at $150,000 and is expected in court Friday.
