Former Dance Moms star Christi Lukasiak has reportedly been arrested for a DUI after 'crashing her car into a tree' in Pennsylvania.
Christi, 47, who appeared on four seasons of the hit Lifetime reality series alongside her daughter Chloe, 23, is understood to have been booked by cops on June 27 after getting into a wreck, which 'left a telephone pole hanging over her car', according to TMZ.
The outlet, which obtained a copy of the Westmoreland County police report, said that cops noted Christi had 'bloodshot and glassy eyes, and slurred speech' and that one of the officers 'reported the smell of alcoholon her breath'.
Mom-of-two Christi is said to have admitted to consuming two glasses of wine before getting into her car, according to the police report, and submitted to a preliminary breath test, which was positive.
Officers also asked her to perform several field sobriety tests, which are said to have indicated that she was impaired and unable to safely operate her car.

Christi is due to appear for a preliminary hearing on August 13, according to Us Weekly.
During her time in the show, Christi was often seen enjoying a glass of wine with the other moms and would often make jokes about being drunk.
On one occasion in season three, dance teacher Abby Lee Miller suspended Christi and her daughter Chloe from the team after the mother-of-two got into an altercation with another mom in the street in New Orleans while enjoying a day of drinking.
While reflecting on her time in the reality series to Huffington Post in 2012, she slammed rumors that she was a 'huge drinker.'
'If there's one thing I would go back and change about last season it would have to be my jokes about drinking,' she wrote.It's just what I do, I'm very sarcastic.
'My joking, coupled with a few scenes of me and Kelly having a glass of wine, really created an uproar that I was a huge drinker.
'Not the case. I don't even have a bottle of wine in my home.
'But I do enjoy having a co*cktail with friends, I'm a grown up.But I would definitely change that perception if I could.'

Christi admitted to struggling with the immense spotlight the show put on her and her daughter.
She claimed that she was 'criticized about everything' - 'from making the decision to do the show, to her parenting skills, to the kind of jelly she used on sandwiches.'
'At first, I read everything that was written and was really upset about what people were saying,' she continued.
'But I had to remind myself of who I really am and be comfortable in my own skin. I just stay away from the internet now.'
Christi and Chloe left the show following season four after Christi got into a furious fight with Abby over claims the dance teacher was bullying her child.
Christi erupted after Abby said her daughter had no 'technique' backstage at Nationals.
'That's on you. You're her technique teacher,' Christi screamed. 'Don't say awful things about my daughter.
'You were no one before these kids. Guess who made you a household name? Them. [My daughter] has more class in her little finger than you in that big body at 45.'
Abby responded by telling her that Chloe was 'finished' and 'washed up,' which only infuriated Christ more.
'How dare you? You don't know anything about my kid,' she scathed as Abby walked away.
'How low of a human being can she be? She can't stand when my daughter does anything in spite of her.'
Christi and Chloe made a brief reappearance in season seven - and more recently returned for Lifetime'sDance Moms: The Reunion, although Christi was not present for filming and only joined via FaceTime.
