While people all over the country had fun in the sun this Memorial Day weekend, it looks like DaniLeigh may have partied a lil’ too hard and landed herself behind bars!
According to TMZ, DaniLeigh was arrested in Miami Beach, Florida, early Tuesday morning. Authorities note the “Lil Bebe” artist was involved in a hit-and-run incident with a moped while driving under the influence.
Harrowingly, she’s accused of striking the moped driver and dragging the scooter for about one block before police intervened.
After failing a field sobriety test, the officer says DaniLeigh took a breathalyzer. She allegedly blew 0.148—well above the legal limit of 0.08.
She was ultimately taken to jail and reportedly charged with three felonies: driving under the influence, DUI damage to property/person, and fleeing the scene of a crash involving serious bodily injury.
As for the moped driver, authorities say he received medical treatment and was diagnosed with a kidney laceration and spinal fracture.
According to the Daily Mail, DaniLeigh was specifically booked at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center. She has reportedly been released after posting a $9,500 bond.
DaniLeigh has not yet publicly addressed the situation.
While on DaniLeigh, it’s worth noting that this ordeal emerged right after she thanked Beyoncé for the opportunity to help with her Renaissance World Tour choreography.
As The Shade Room reported, DaniLeigh thanked Queen Bey for the opportunity earlier this month.
After acknowledging that she had kept the project on the DL, she said she was “so grateful to have been [a part] of some of the choreography” for the beloved tour.
She called the opportunity “a dream come true” before thanking Beyoncé and noting, “The show looks amazing!”
There are no further updates to the matter at this time.
