A 26-year-old Stoneham woman allegedly rear-ended a cab in Arlington early Saturday morning while drunk.

Allysa J. Donnelly, of Franklin Street, was driving erratically and then crashed into the back of the cab on Mass. Ave., at the Mill Street light, at about 1:45 a.m., according to the arresting officer, who had been driving behind her.
