During the course of the investigation, detectives reviewed the vehicle\u2019s crash data recorder that showed Breeding was traveling at 83 miles per hour at the time of the crash. The area of the crash was a 25 mile per hour zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, a blood sample from Breeding taken immediately following the crash was analyzed and showed significant measured amounts of Alprazolam, Amphetamines, and Methamphetamines, rendering her impaired at the time of the crash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOnce again I am reminding everyone that there is never a reason to drive impaired. Because of this woman\u2019s reckless actions, a family has lost a loved one. Please, don\u2019t get behind the wheel of a vehicle if you are impaired. Call a friend or family member \u2013 or take advantage of a ride share program. This is for your safety and the safety of others on the roadway.\u201d <\/strong><\/em>\u2013 Grady Judd, Sheriff <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breeding was arrested for DUI Manslaughter (F2), Vehicular Homicide (F2), DUI with Serious Injury (F3), DUI with Property Damage (M1) (5 counts)<\/strong>. She is currently in the Polk County Jail and being held with no bond. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original news release is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Polk County Sheriff\u2019s Office Traffic Unit is investigating a multi-vehicle crash that occurred around 2:15 a.m. this morning, June 20, 2021, on Ellis Avenue just east of Park Street in Unincorporated Lakeland which resulted in the death of 22-year-old Teresa Hammond of Lakeland. Hammond was the passenger of a 2003 gray Ford Focus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the preliminary information, the Ford Focus, with its lights turned off, was parked in the north side lane of Ellis Avenue and was facing east. 23-year-old Marquist Westbrooks of Tampa was sitting in the driver\u2019s seat of the vehicle; Hammond was sitting in the front passenger seat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

54-year-old Lisa Breeding of Lakeland was driving a 2001 gray Buick Century. Breeding was traveling westbound on Ellis Avenue at a high rate of speed when her Buick Century hit the front passenger side of the Ford Focus. The impact caused the Ford Focus to spin counter-clockwise in a northwestward direction and hit an unoccupied 2016 black Ford Dart which was parked in a driveway. Hammond was partially ejected from the vehicle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Breeding\u2019s car continued to travel in a southwestward direction, it hit an unoccupied 2009 gray Chevrolet Malibu which was parked in a neighboring driveway. The impact caused the Malibu to hit an unoccupied and parked 2007 white Nissan Murano, also in a neighboring driveway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hammond died at the scene. Westbrooks sustained non-life threatening injuries and was transported to a local hospital. He is in stable condition. Neither were wearing seatbelts at the time of the crash. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breeding sustained minor injuries and was treated at the scene. She was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The roadway was closed approximately 4 hours during the investigation. This investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
