A Utah woman was arrested over the weekend for allegedly posing as her 21-year-old daughter in an attempt to avoid drug possession charges.

Heather Garcia, 38, was pulled over in Davis County on Saturday after an officer noticed that her BMW didn't have a license plate.

According to Fox San Antonio, officers from the Davis County Police Department searched her vehicle and found drug paraphernalia and a white powdery substance.

Police said Garcia then told them that her name was Mercedes and that she was born in 1998.

At that point, the officer didn't realize that Garcia had given them her daughter's information.

But they soon figured that out through a records check, according to the station.

When officers pulled up Garcia's information, they discovered that she had outstanding warrants.

Garcia was charged with drug possession, driving with a revoked license, and offering false personal info to a police officer.

She is currently being held at the Davis County Jail under her active warrants and the new charges.
