Anaheim police charged longtime Los Angeles news anchor Bree Walker with drunk driving Wednesday, saying she appeared 'disheveled' and reeked of alcohol.
The former anchor remembered for her work in the 1980s was pulled over around 12:30 a.m. after allegedly making an illegal left turn, KTLA reported.
Cops smelled alcohol and said the 61-year-old Walker had bloodshot, watery eyes.
She failed a sobriety test and was released after signing a written promise to appear in court, according to the site.

Walker also gained notoriety for having ectrodactyly, a condition in which fingers in toes fuse together, leading her to become an advocate for the disabled.
