The mayor of Naples must appear in front of a jury after being arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol.
Teresa Heitmann, 62, was arrested in August 2024 after she allegedly drunkenly chased a motorist in her Porsche to their home after an incident in a roundabout, according to an arrest report.
Heitmann is scheduled to appear for a jury trial on Aug. 4.
Upon conducting a breathalyzer test, Naples police officers measured Heitmann’s blood-alcohol content at 0.169, which is more than double the legal limit of 0.08, according to the arrest report.
She has been charged with a DUI with blood-alcohol content of greater than 0.15.
