A woman from Florida is sitting in jail on a felony narcotics charge after she approached a cop and asked, “Can you arrest me? I have drugs on me.
Police were handling a call Tuesday night outside a St. Petersburg bar when Chelsi Leahy, 30, reportedly requested to be busted by a corporal with the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office.
According to reports the suspect “removed two small baggies from her pockets” and presented them to the cop, claiming they contained methamphetamine.
Leahy was arrested for a felony charge of possession of a controlled substance. Cops say the substance weighed about two grams.
Upon issuing a field test on the substance, a positive result for meth was returned, according to a criminal complaint which states that Leahy showed an “Indication of Drug Influence.”
In lieu of $750 bond, Leahy is being held in the county jail. Her record includes drug possession, theft, tampering with a motor vehicle, forgery, and leaving the scene of an accident.
