FAYETTE COUNTY, Ga. — The trial for actress and comedian Tiffany Haddish, accused of driving under the influence in metro Atlanta, is expected to get underway on Monday.
Haddish was arrested in January 2022 after a police officer found her asleep behind the wheel along Highway 74 around 2:30 a.m.
As a Peachtree City officer was heading to the scene, they noticed Haddish’s vehicle and performed a traffic stop, with her pulling into the yard of a home nearby.
Following the traffic stop, the officer arrested and charged Haddish with DUI.
