Wrong-Way Driver On Broken Arrow Expressway Arrested For DUI

Another wrong-way driver was caught in Tulsa early Wednesday.

A Tulsa County Sheriff's Deputy was entering the Broken Arrow Expressway at Denver Avenue and saw a car going east in the westbound lanes.

The deputy turned on her lights and siren and drove alongside the car in an attempt to stop the wrong-way driver.

During the pursuit, speeds reached over 100 mph.

Another deputy went ahead of the chase and threw out tire deflators near Interstate-44.

The car finally stopped just west of Highway 169 where Marie Curran, of Broken Arrow, was arrested for DUI, speeding 15 mph or more, no insurance security verification, reckless driving, driving on wrong side of road, running a road block and no seat belt.

One of our producers at News On 6 almost hit the wrong-way driver near 21st Street, but was able to swerve out of the way.
