Drunk Woman Drives to Leelanau County Sheriff’s Office to Bond Out Drunk Friend

An intoxicated Cedar woman who told police she wouldn’t drive, parked in a patrol car spot at the Leelanau County Sheriff’s office trying to bond out her friend.

The woman was a passenger in the car when her Northport friend was driving drunk in Leland. Deputies arrested the man after he failed field sobriety tests. The woman told the deputy she would find a ride from someone else at a nearby tavern and agreed not to drive because she was drunk.

About an hour later, deputies spotted her car parked in the sheriff’s office parking lot. She told police she was there to bond out her friend. Deputies gave her sobriety tests, and she failed all of them. She was arrested.

Both drivers were released later after posting $100 bond each pending appearance in court.
