[October 14, 2009]  UTICA, N.Y. (AP) -- A 33-year-old upstate New York woman has been charged with driving while intoxicated twice in less than five hours. Utica police stopped Talitha Gorea just after 7 p.m. Monday for vehicle and traffic violations and found her with an open container of alcohol and an ecstasy pill. Gorea was charged with drug possession and DWI for having a blood alcohol content level above the legal limit.

She was released to a family member and given an appearance ticket.

Four hours later, Utica police reported seeing Gorea speeding in the wrong direction on a one-way street and she was arrested. Police said her blood alcohol level again registered above the legal limit.

Gorea was being held in jail pending her arraignment Tuesday morning and doesn't yet have a lawyer.
