A Columbus woman was arrested on drunk driving charges after causing a three car pileup last night on the west side of the city.

53-year-old Kristin R. Belli is facing preliminary charges of operating a vehicle while intoxicated with a blood alcohol content  .15% or greater, with a previous conviction and with endangerment.

The incident happened at about 7:11 p.m. last evening on Jonathan Moore Pike near the interstate. Police say that Belli was driving when she struck a car at a traffic signal, pushing that vehicle into another. Officers detected the strong smell of alcohol on her breath, says Lt. Matt Harris, spokesman for the Columbus police. She tested at .34 BAC, more than four times the legal limit, Harris says.
