Elizabeth McCabe, 21, of Tallahassee, was arrested on a warrant filed through the Wakulla County State Attorney’s Office.
According to Overstreet, McCabe was driving on U.S. 98 on April 12 when she left the road, causing her car to spin counter-clockwise before crashing into a tree.
A passenger, Emily Hardy, 18, of Crawfordville, was pronounced dead at the scene.
McCabe, who is paralyzed from the waist down as a result of injuries sustained in the crash, was entered into the Wakulla County Jail system and released.
The warrant was served for McCabe’s arrest after the FHP received results from blood tests taken from McCabe at the time of the crash. Her blood level exceeded the legal limit.
