LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Police have arrested a driver for driving under the influence after a 23-year-old was killed in a crash early Saturday morning.

The car swerved and crossed several lanes and onto the shoulder. The vehicle then hit a metal stop light support. The passenger in the car was ejected from the car. The car then spun and landed on top of the passenger, who has since been identified as Kaitlyn Adams.
