On February 19, 2024, a Lakewood police sergeant observed a vehicle pull out of the Days Inn motel and start driving suspiciously. The officer initiated a traffic stop on the vehicle and could immediately smell a substance you should not be driving under the influence of. The 30 year-old mother had her 10 year-old daughter in the vehicle. The woman was asked to perform standardized field sobriety tests and was ultimately arrested. A weapon was discovered under the driver's seat. At the police station, she was given the opportunity to provide a urine sample, but she refused. She was charged with the following eight (8) offenses: (1) Operating a Vehicle Impaired (OVI); (2) OVI with refusal; (3) Child Endangering; (4) Possession of Weapons while Intoxicated; (5) Carrying a Concealed Weapon; (6) Improper Handling of a Weapon in a Vehicle; (7) Failure to Use Turn Signals; and (8) No Headlights. On April 3, 2024, she pled guilty to the OVI charge and the Carrying a Concealed Weapon charge. The other 6 charges were dismissed. Sentencing is scheduled for May 7, 2024 in Lakewood Municipal Court.
