Orange police recently arrested two West Haven women after one of them allegedly ran a red light while driving drunk on the Boston Post Road.

Police said they conducted a motor vehicle stop on a car driven by Amanda Houley of West Haven after she allegedly drove through a red light onto the Boston Post Road early Friday, April 19.

Houley, 20, performed standardized roadside sobriety tests and subsequently was taken into custody and charged with DUI and failure to obey a traffic signal, police said. She was released after posting $50 bond and is due in court May 3.

Houley's passenger, Paige Moran, also of West Haven, when asked for identification, allegedly produced what police determined to be a fake ID, police said. Moran, 19, reportedly told police she purchased the license on the Internet, police said.

Moran was charged with third-degree forgery. She was released on a promise to appear for a court appearance on May 3.
