A local television news anchor is facing drunk driving and leaving the scene of an accident after she was arrested early Thursday morning.

Debra Daniel, an evening news anchor for WSBT-TV, was arrested around 2:45 at Cleveland and Ironwood in South Bend.

Police say she was side-swiped by another car in the 400-block of North Michigan.

Officers say the driver of that car called after Daniel did not stop and followed Daniel until police arrested her.

Police say Daniel's blood alcohol content was .15.

WSBT general manager John Mann issued a statement this morning saying Daniel has been suspended pending further investigation of her arrest.
