“Super Drunk” Woman Mistakes Jail For Bar
A Michigan woman was arrested early Sunday morning in a jail parking lot after she mistook the jail for a bar. The Associated Press describes the 39-year-old as “super drunk.” A breathalyzer revealed that she had a BAC more than twice the legal limit.
Here’s what happened, according to MLive:
Police said the 39-year-old woman pulled into the parking lot of the sheriff’s office … shortly after 2 a.m. Patrol units observed the woman as she began backing up in the parking lot while trying to convince her boyfriend to rejoin her in her vehicle.
A deputy then made contact with the driver and discovered she smelled heavily of intoxicants and appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, the release stated.
The woman is currently being held and is expected to face charges related to drunk driving and having a BAC higher than .17.
