In a statement release Friday night, Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan says Dorene Hanrahan, 46, has been charged with operating under the influence of liquor, negligent operation of a motor vehicle, marked lanes violation, and possessing an open container of alcohol in a motor vehicle.

A judge set bail at $250 cash and Hanrahan was ordered to not drive without a valid license.

Her next court date is slated for September 4.

The crash occurred around 12:35 p.m. Friday on Middlesex Avenue in Wilmington.

Officers found Hanrahan trapped in her car. Firefighters freed her using the "Jaws of Life."

No one was hurt in the crash.

Ryan says arresting officers administered a series of field sobriety tests and the Breathalyzer result was .19.

The fire truck suffered damage to its front end, as did the car.
