TULSA, Okla. — A Tulsa woman faces charges after police say she was passed out behind the wheel of a car.
Over the weekend, officers responded to a call about a passed-out driver at the intersection of N. Peoria and E. 36th Street N.
When they arrived, they found paramedics trying to speak with the driver, now identified as 32-year-old Melissa Hughes.
Hughes began speaking with officers and paramedics. Hughes' 13-year-old child was in the car, along with an empty bottle of tequila and a handgun.
Hughes told officers that she had a few shots of alcohol, and she agreed to take a breathalyzer test.
The first test resulted in a reading of 0.13. The second was 0.15.
Hughes was arrested and booked on child endangerment, aggravated DUI, and transporting an open container.
