Tyre-d and Emotional

A Washington State uncouth youth was apprehended Saturday (25 October) by sheriff’s deputies in Kitsap County following a drunken fight with another teen and an abortive attempt “to start [her] car with a tyre iron,” local news sources have reported.

The police were called to the scene of a fight between two women in Port Orchard and on arrival spotted an 18-year-old attempting to pull a tyre iron out of her car. Witnesses told the deputies that the woman was one of those involved in the earlier scrap, so the law enforcement agents directed the woman to drop the auto implement and come forward. She refused, giving the police no option but to slap on the bracelets. When she slurred her insistence that she was going to use the tyre iron to get the car running, the deputies noticed that she smelled of alcohol. The fact that she couldn’t stand up straight was the final straw; she was taken to Kitsap County lockup and held on $1,000 bail for obstructing a law enforcement officer and being a minor consuming alcohol.
