A Kenton County Detention Center sergeant faces 11 charges after allegedly driving the wrong way on Interstate 71/75 through Fort Wright and Covington early Saturday, Sept. 26.

Nia Slaughter, 36, drove northbound in the southbound lanes near Cut in the Hill around 2 a.m., causing multiple crashes and nearly hitting two police cruisers head-on, according to a police citation reported by WLWT. Officers used a cruiser to pin her vehicle against the wall to stop it.

One crash in Covington caused more than $500 in damage to both vehicles involved.

No serious injuries were reported.

Covington Police Capt. Justin Bradbury confirmed the time and location of the incident, FOX19 reported.

According to Bradbury, he said she caused "numerous accidents and endangered multiple people," including three officers, and that "she almost went head on with two cruisers, and she needed to be pinned against the wall to be stopped."

At the scene, Slaughter had "a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage on her breath" and was unsteady on her feet with bloodshot, watery eyes, according to the citation. She admitted to drinking earlier that night and told officers she was headed home to Independence from Covington. Police say she acknowledged she "probably shouldn't" have been driving.

A breath test returned a result of .189, more than twice Kentucky's legal limit of .08, according to police. Prosecutors cited a blood-alcohol level of 0.209 at her arraignment, according to FOX19.

Slaughter has been charged with five counts of first-degree wanton endangerment, three counts of first-degree wanton endangerment of a police officer, one count of first-degree criminal mischief, one count of reckless driving and one count of operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol.

She pleaded not guilty, FOX19 reported. A judge set a $10,000 cash bond and ordered Slaughter not to drive. A court-appointed public defender's request for a lower bond was denied.

Kenton County Jailer Marc Fields confirmed to FOX19 that Slaughter was suspended Monday, Sept. 28. "She will remain suspended until her charges have been adjudicated, and her job status will depend on the outcome of her case," Fields said.

The southbound lanes of I-71/75 were closed early Saturday after the incident.

A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 7, at 1:30 p.m.
