WEYMOUTH, MA — A Weymouth woman is being held on $7,500 bail charged with a host of charges including drunk driving, leaving the scene of an accident, and then striking the ambulance responding to the accident call.

"I heard the smash it must have just happened because I saw the ambulance still jerking up and down," said witness Emma Cazeault who saw the crash outside her window on Bridge Street in Weymouth.

Carolyn Davis, 41, was arraigned bedside at South Shore Hospital. Cazeault said she saw Davis emerge from her red Subaru with her hands up. "She stumbled to the curb and sat down," Cazeault said. "Then paramedics got out of the ambulance they must have been impacted by the air bags because they were wiping their faces."
