Bond is set at $10,000 cash or $50,000 surety for a Liberty woman, who has been charged with driving while intoxicated, endangering the welfare of a child and two counts of possession of a controlled substance.
Andrea L. Ballentine (DOB 1991) was stopped by Carthage Police 11:17 p.m. Monday at 400 N. Francis because her car had no taillights and she was driving in the oncoming traffic lane, according to the probable cause statement.
approximately 5:00 P.M. Ballentine was arrested for DWI and was advised of Implied Consent. She refused to submit to a test of her blood.
The suspect's six year old daughter was found unrestrained in the suspect vehicle at the time of stop.
While conducting field sobriety tests Sgt Snow asked the suspect for consent to search the vehicle and suspect gave consent. Sgt Snow located two peach colored pills in a bag believed to belong to Ballentine in the front passenger floorboard. The pills were marked with b 973 on one side and 20 on the other side.
Ptl. Hettinger searched the description of the pills online which showed them to be Amphetamine and Dextroamphetamine a Schedule 2 Controlled Substance.
