Hyannis woman charged with OUI after hitting parked police car

A 20-year-old unlicensed Hyannis woman was driving drunk early Saturday morning when she crashed into a parked Barnstable police car, injuring herself and her passenger, according to police.

Just after 1 a.m. Saturday, Barnstable police went to a home on Lincoln Road in Hyannis for a quiet 9-1-1 call. While the police were investigating, a sedan driven by the 20-year-old crashed into the empty police car parked on the street.

According to police, the driver and her 24-year-old passenger suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the crash and were transported to Cape Cod Hospital by the Hyannis Fire Department.

The 20-year-old was issued a hospital summons on charges of operating under the influence, negligent operation, unlicensed operation and speeding.

She is scheduled to be arraigned in Barnstable District Court on those charges. The incident remains under investigation by the Barnstable Police Department.
