A Paralowie woman has been arrested after she was found asleep in an allegedly stolen car in a Dry Creek Hungry Jack’s drive-through early Wednesday morning.

A 22-year-old woman was reported to police just before 5am, by a staff member at a Vater St Hungry Jack’s who noticed the woman asleep behind the wheel in the drive-through.

Police found the woman slumped at the wheel and conducted a search which allegedly found illegal substances believed to be meth and drug paraphernalia.

Police further allege the car, a Honda Civic, had been stolen from a Parafield Gardens address on August 12.

The Civic was involved in a break-in on a business premise where three suspects stole thousands of dollars of catalytic converters earlier this month.

The Paralowie woman was arrested and will be charged with illegal use, licence offences and possessing a controlled substance.

The woman is expected to be bailed to appear in court at a later date.
