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.
