still smell the unknown alcoholic beverage emitting from her person. The officer asked the
driver where she was coming from and she advised she was at Soprano's, located at 840 S.
Broad Street, having a few drinks. The driver admitted she should not have been driving due to
how many drinks she had consumed. The officer asked the driver if she would be willing to
perform the Standard Field Sobriety Tests, at which time she stated, knowingly and willfully,
"No". The officer asked the driver if she would be willing to submit to a Portable Breath Test, at
which time she stated "No". The officer asked the same questions multiple times and the driver
continued to refuse. The officer read the driver the Implied Consent Warning card, distributed
to me at the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy, at which time the driver refused, knowingly
and willfully. The officer then placed the driver in handcuffs, double locked, and checked for
tightness. The officer then placed the driver in the rear passenger seat of the squad car and
transported the driver to the Griffith Police Station. Once in the squad room of the station, the
officer read to the driver the Implied Consent Warning. The driver knowingly and willfully
refused again, stating "No". The officer then placed the driver into the female jail cell at the
police station until transported to the Lake County Jail. The driver granted her boyfriend

friend after she tried to leave. The reporting officer informed the complainant that if she wished
to pursue charges against her friend, the officer would charge both her and her friend with

informed the mother that her daughter. Juvenile #2, was going to be charged with Disorderly
Conduct for her active involvement in the fight as well as Juvenile #3. She stated she
understood. The reporting officer attempted 4 times throughout his shift to make contact with

> 16GR08368 NARCOTICS INVESTIGATION, 100 Blk of N Ernest St, (10/5, 11:58 AM).
Officers and Prompt EMS responded to the 100 block of N Ernest Street in reference to an
unresponsive female believed to be overdosing on heroin. A Detective arrived on-scene and
was met at the front door to the residence by the patient's father. The father was asked where
the female was and he replied "downstairs". The Detective told the patient’s father to take him
to the patient. The Detective was lead through the living room and kitchen to a staircase. He
was lead down the stairs to an open semi finished basement. The Detective observed the
female, later identified from previous contacts and her Indiana ID Card, lying on a couch. The
Detective observed the female for signs of life and observed very shallow breathing and a
capped hypodermic needle between her legs. The Detective shouted her name and shook her
right shoulder. The female sat up very quickly and was highly disorientated. As the female
stood up a small jeweler style baggie fell from her torso area on to the floor containing three
white pills. The female then attempted to grab multiple items on the table. It should be noted all
said items were within an arms length of the female. The Detective restrained the female by
grasping her wrists and walking her back to the stairway and up the stairs where medics were
just arriving. The Detective ordered the female to sit down on a chair in the kitchen as she was
evaluated by Prompt EMS personnel and the K-9 officer arrived on scene at about the same
time. The Detective then went back downstairs and secured the hypodermic needle, spoon
with brown/white powder like substance (suspected heroin), and the small baggie containing 3
Xanax pills. The items were collected as evidence due to them being in plain view when the
Detective arrived and began to tend to the female. The Detective seized the female's cell
Page 10 of 25 phone as potential evidence. The Detective returned to the main level and was told the female
denied medical treatment. Officers advised the female that she was under arrest and placed
her into custody based upon the evidence located. The female then became violent and
pushed officers to the side in an effort to get to a bedroom on the main level. Officers were
able to restrain and handcuff the female in the presence of the medics as well as her father.
The female kicked back at both officers and refused to walk and continually pulled away and
failed to adhere to orders given by officers as well as pleas from her father. Officers ordered
the female to stop resisting, shouting and yelling many times over and over to no avail.
Ultimately the Detective retrieved a set of flex cuffs from the rear of a squad car and used them
on the female's ankles, due to her constant kicking and potentially injuring officers and or
herself in any further struggles. At this point the female demanded to go to the hospital and
claimed pain in her back. Prompt EMS personnel advised they would not transport the female
without an escort. The Detective followed Prompt EMS to Munster Community. It should be
noted that the female’s father was present during the whole ordeal and told the female
numerous times to get along with the officers and to stop resisting. The father advised the
female to stop continuously and advised her to comply with orders. The father told his
daughter the officers only were doing their jobs and due to her fighting, forced officers to
restrain her. The female vehemently disagreed and made continual claims against officers
during the whole ordeal. Prompt Medics were also witnesses during the event. Once at
Munster Community Hospital, staff indicated her stay may be lengthy & due to staffing, no
officer could remain with the female. The female was advised by the Detective that she would
be charged with Possession of a Hypodermic, 2 counts of Possession of a Controlled
Substance (heroin & pills), and Resisting Law Enforcement. The Detective advised the female
that her phone was taken as evidence. The female advised she understood in the presence of
medical staff and Prompt EMS members. Handcuffs and flex cuffs were removed at this point.
The female indicated to staff she does not have prescriptions for Xanax nor for the use of
hypodermic syringes. The Detective transported all said evidence to Griffith PD and logged it.
The Detective utilized a NIK field test kit to test the suspected heroin and it yielded a "positive"
result. The Detective conducted a check of the female's name in Courtview and located a guilty
plea to Possession of a Hypodermic Needle in 45D12-1605-F6-00092. Charges were
forwarded to the Lake County Prosecutor's Office for consideration: Possession of a Schedule
I substance (Heroin), Possession of a Schedule IV substance (Xanax), Possession of a
Hypodermic Needle, Disorderly Conduct, and Resisting Law Enforcement.
