Student smashes into police car while taking topless selfie

A student has been arrested after she crashed into a police car while taking a topless selfie, officials said.

Mirander Rader also had an open bottle of wine in a cup holder next to her, police added.

The 19-year-old Texas university student was trying to put her blouse on when the officer approached her, the Bryan Police Department said.

The accident happened on Wednesday near Texas A&M University about 100 miles northwest of Houston.

The arresting officer said: "I asked her why she was not dressed while driving and she stated she was taking a Snapchat photo to send to her boyfriend while she was at a red light."

Ms Rader did not reply to an email seeking comment, the Reuters news agency said.

She was arrested on suspicion of driving while intoxicated and released on a bond of $2,000, detectives said.
