Former ‘Dance Moms’ reality TV star Christi Lukasiak was arrested for driving under the influence following a crash in Westmoreland County‘s Murrysville.

The incident, which occurred on Logan Ferry Road near Remaley Road on June 27, involved Lukasiak’s Audi Q7 that crashed into a tree with a telephone pole hanging precariously over it.

When Murrysville police arrived at the scene, they noted Lukasiak’s bloodshot eyes, slurred speech, and a smell of alcohol on her. Lukasiak informed the officers that she had consumed two glasses of wine at the Wooden Nickel before dropping a friend off in Plum.

After conducting a preliminary breath test that returned positive for alcohol in Lukasiak’s system, police proceeded to administer standard field sobriety tests, determining that she was impaired to a level where safe vehicle operation was not possible.

Christi Lukasiak gained fame on ‘Dance Moms,’ a reality series showcasing the conflicts at Abby Lee Miller‘s dance studio in Penn Hills. Her turbulent relationship with Miller, as well as her daughter Chloe‘s journey, were central to the show before departing in season four.
