"The accident caused injury to the patrol officer who was brought to Nyack Hospital," he added.

Goldin was given a series of sobriety test and it was determined that she was intoxicated, police said.

She was arrested, processed and released to appear at the Town of Clarkstown Justice Court on Feb. 6.
