A 27-year-old Texas woman accused of killing a college student in an alleged drunken driving crash told police she drank a single margarita at a nearby dog bar with her husky named Tequila before climbing behind the wheel.

Lynlee Pollis admitted to running a red light in her Lexus and crashing into the car of Southern Methodist University sophomore Honor Elizabeth Wallace, 19, killing her, the Dallas Morning News reported.

Wallace's passenger suffered a broken collarbone in the collision that occurred about 4 p.m. Sunday on Monticello Avenue and the North Central Expressway service road, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by the local newspaper.

Pollis, who suffered minor injuries, was interviewed at the hospital. Police noted in the arrest affidavit that she had glassy eyes, slurred speech and smelled of alcohol.

She was charged with intoxication manslaughter and intoxication assault and was released on a $100,000 bond, a court clerk told Fox News Digital.

After the crash, Pollis appears to have deleted her Instagram and Facebook pages, which had featured numerous snaps of her drinking and hanging out with her pooch, Tequila.

Her LinkedIn profile says she is a hospitality management professional who most recently worked at Vandelay Hospitality Group, which operates about 10 high-end restaurants.

An attorney for Pollis could not immediately be identified. A resident of Monticello Avenue told FOX4 that he heard the crash from inside his home and ran outside to help.

"It was horrible, horrible," Ron English said. "I’ve thought about it all week, especially when I found out how young they were."
