Police have released the body-cam video of an Arizona woman who was allegedly driving drunk while in her wedding dress, according to multiple reports.
Amber Young, dubbed the "DUI Bride," was arrested in Tuscon in 2018 for allegedly causing a car crash involving three vehicles and injuring one person.
When asked whether she should have been driving under the influence, Young told officers "I think that I am getting married today and I wasn't really sure what I was supposed to be doing today."
In the video recently released by the Marana Police Department, Young is wearing a white dress and claims to be driving to her wedding.
"I just wanted to get to my wedding," she said. "I feel so stupid wearing this dress."
When asked if the dress she was wearing was her wedding dress, she said yes.
She also denied having consumed any alcohol, and said she was shaking because she was nervous.
"Not anything. I, I, I've just been like very scared about everything," Young said referring to the wedding, according to the body cam footage.
Young's attorney claimed the white dress was actually a sundress and accused police of fabricating the story about the wedding.
The Marana Police Department initially posted a photo of Young in handcuffs to their Twitter page in 2018, but later deleted it, saying it wanted to prevent further embarrassment, according to AZ Family.
