Lynn Anderson was arrested Thursday night (Sept. 11) in Nashville for driving under the influence.
Anderson was involved in a collision at the corner of West End Avenue and 31st Avenue at about 9 p.m. She admitted to drinking alcohol and taking prescription medication before the accident, according to an affidavit.
In 2004, Anderson was arrested for passing out in her car on the side of an interstate.
She has checked herself into the Betty Ford Clinic in the past.
Anderson was released from the Metro jail on a $5,000 bond around 4 a.m. Friday.
Anderson posted a statement on her Facebook page at 10:50 a.m. Friday:
“I apologize for the choices I made and subsequent actions on Thursday evening that ultimately resulted in the accident. By the grace of God, I am very grateful that no one was injured as a result. I am committed to the accountable steps that I will be facing on the road to recovery and am deeply sorry for anyone that I have harmed along this path.”
