Police say the driver was half on the lawn, half on the road when they found her.

SPARTA, NJ — A woman was charged with drunk driving after her Audi wound up partially parked on a local lawn, Sparta police said.
Kathy Infurna, 51 of Sparta, was arrested late Tuesday night when police say they got a call about a car that had been idling for over an hour. Police say they found Infurna half on the road and half on someone's front lawn. The car was not in park; instead, she just had her foot on the brake, police say.
An officer was able to put the car into park before taking Infurna to a local hospital, police say. She was charged with failure to maintain lane, failure to keep right, careless driving and a DWI.
