LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — A judge reduced bail for the woman accused of killing a 10-year-old girl in a DUI crash in July.

She has been accused of speeding down Tates Creek Road at speeds of 85 mph, running a red light and hitting another vehicle.

Alexia Gomez Hernandez was inside the other car and was killed.

Police said Collins' blood-alcohol level four hours after the crash was .211.

A blood test also confirmed that she had traces of cocaine in her system.

Her bail was reduced to $150,000 full cash.
