A Lady Lake woman was arrested after she was spotted throwing out a cup and bag from McDonald’s.
Danielle Renee Tanner, 41, who lives at the Rolling Acres Apartments on County Road 466 in Lady Lake, was driving a silver 2010 Buick Lucerne at 5:15 p.m. Thursday when she threw a bag and cup from the vehicle as she was turning from South Clay Avenue onto County Road 466, according to an arrest report from the Lady Lake Police Department.
When a police officer asked about the litter during a traffic stop, the Florida native said she had been at the fast-food restaurant and admitted she had thrown the items out onto the roadway. A check revealed the certified nursing assistant’s driver’s license was valid “for business purposes only.” Tanner has seven convictions for driving while license suspended.
Tanner was arrested on a third-degree felony charge of driving while license suspended. She was issued a ticket for littering. She was booked at the Lake County Jail and released after posting $2,000.
