Love & Hip Hop star Teairra Mari was arrested over the weekend after being pulled over for suspicion of drunk driving. She claims she'd only had three glasses of wine with dinner, but the police suggest otherwise. Read on for details.

“Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood” star Teairra Mari had vodka and Four Loko in her car when she pulled over for allegedly driving drunk — and was easily spotted because of sparks flying from her missing tire, according to court documents.
Mari, 31, had “watery eyes, a flushed face, and an odor of an alcoholic beverage on her breath,” and was “unsteady on her feet” when she was pulled over following her wild drive in the early hours of Saturday, according to her criminal complaint.
“I was at a restaurant with friends, I had like three glasses of Pinot Grigio,” the reality star, famous for her feud with 50 Cent over a sex tape, told officers after her arrest, according to the document.
However, she later blew a .304 — more than three times the legal limit — and had opened booze in the front passenger seat of her red 2014 Dodge Charger, according to the complaint.
That included an open can of the Four Loko — the widely-banned mix of booze and caffeine — as well as an unsealed bottle of Ketel One vodka, the complaint says.
An officer says that Mari had been spotted driving through the Queens-Midtown Tunnel “at a high rate of speed” despite missing her front right tire — “creating sparks” as she drove, the complaint said.
