Possession of amphetamine. Deputies arrested a 38-year-old transient woman who was seen driving erratically and dancing in the roadway.

A concerned citizen reported that the woman was stopping every 10 to 15 feet in the road to dance, and that she asked the citizen if they wanted to buy drugs at one point, according to the woman's arrest report. 

The woman told deputies that she was lost in the area. During the investigation, deputies discovered the woman's vehicle registration was expired by almost one year. As she was looking for her cell phone to call someone to pick her up, a deputy noticed a glass smoking pipe inside one of her bags. 

A subsequent search of her car turned up several pipes, marijuana and an amphetamine pill.

She was taken to jail.
