On Saturday, Paris police officers encountered Ladonna McIntire, who was found dancing and walking in the middle of the road along the 100 block of E. Hearne St. The incident took a concerning turn when McIntire produced a knife upon officer contact, which she promptly dropped upon the officers' orders.
McIntire, who was visibly highly intoxicated, posed a danger to herself as she continued to walk into oncoming traffic. As a result, the officers decided to take her into custody for Public Intoxication. Notably, McIntire had multiple previous convictions for the same offense, which led to the enhancement of her charges.
Following her arrest, the Paris police officers booked McIntire and subsequently transported her to the county jail.
