DaniLeigh Reportedly Had A Bottle Of Tequila In Her Vehicle During Hit-And-Run Arrest

Police say that during DaniLeigh's May 30 arrest for an alleged hit-and-run, officers found an open bottle of Don Julio 1942 tequila in her vehicle. She was taken into custody after allegedly hitting a man driving a moped and continuing to drive. According to reports, DaniLeigh drove with the moped stuck in the grill of her Mercedes SUV for about a block. The man who was hit was taken to a hospital and suffered minor injuries, including a fractured spine and a lacerated kidney.

According to one officer, DaniLeigh didn't initially pull over and police had to honk their horn multiple times before she stopped. The officer claims that both DaniLeigh and her passenger appeared to be intoxicated, despite her claims that she had not consumed any alcohol. Upon inspecting the vehicle that reportedly smelled of alcohol, the officer says they found the empty bottle of vodka. DaniLeigh was arrested after failing a field sobriety test, and taken to the Miami Beach Police Department. She was later given a breathalyzer test and reportedly blew almost twice the legal limit, 0.148. She was charged with three felonies, including driving under the influence, leaving the scene of a crash with serious bodily injury, and DUI damage to property.

DaniLeigh had another run-in with law enforcement in 2021, after an altercation with the father of her child, DaBaby. After the rapper went live during the altercation, he called police to have her removed from his home. DaniLeigh was charged with two counts of simple assault after DaBaby claimed she had hit him.

Earlier this month, DaniLeigh also shared that she was credited for helping with choreography for Beyoncé's Renaissance tour. She shared a post with social media followers, saying she was "so grateful" for the opportunity. The artist also said the experience was "an honor and such a blessing," calling it "a dream come true!!!"
