ROY, Utah, Sept. 10, 2022 (Gephardt Daily) — Police say a woman likely experiencing “an alcohol- and drug-induced delirium” Saturday night crashed into at least two cars, attempted to break into vehicles and homes, and then tried to hide from officers by pretending to be a resident at care center.
Roy City Police Sgt. Josh Taylor said the car crashes and attempted break-ins all took place within about two blocks of Heritage Park, a health care and rehabilitation center at 2700 W. 5600 South.
The woman was “experiencing what we believe to be an alcohol- and drug-induced delirium,” Taylor told Gephardt Daily.
Roy police initially responded to reports of a car crash at 9:16 p.m. near 2775 W. 5600 South, he said. The woman hit at least two cars along 5600 South, including one parked vehicle, Taylor said.
The woman also attempted to carjack several motorists after crashing her vehicle, he said. She later tried to break into a few homes before attempting to “masquerade as a resident” at Heritage Park, Taylor said.
No serious injuries were reported, he said.
The woman was taken into custody inside Heritage Park at 9:31 p.m., Taylor said. She was transported to an area hospital to be evaluated, he said.
I’m just glad no one was seriously hurt. This also includes the women running from the law. No one deserves to be hurt by anything in any way.
Thank you everyone for making sure everyone got home okay after such of an event.
Especial thanks to the local police department for reacting just as fast, if not faster then the rest of us helping. This same thanks should also go to the graveyard crew at Heritage Park, the true resident’s of heritage park, and those involved ( In the multiple intrusion of personal property) who helped with apprehending the woman experiencing alcohol induced delirium.
Roy city, still to this day, vanguards us as a whole, as a community, towards being protected.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!
