Kingwood woman charged with third DWI

Shauna Michelle Richardson, 35, is charged with driving while intoxicated.

  HOUSTON (KTRK) -- A Kingwood woman has been charged with her third DWI.

Shauna Michelle Richardson is charged with driving while intoxicated. Police arrested Richardson Wednesday after a 911 caller witnessed her hit a curb and attempt to drive on a flat tire. Two kids, ages 2 and 4, were with her.

Just last month, she was arrested and charged with DWI after police say she nodded off in the drive-thru at McDonalds with a 4-year old in the back seat.

Richardson, 35, has two prior convictions of DWI, both in 2006.
