On Nov. 26 at about 1:35 p.m., State Police from SP Geneseo and SP Lima were advised of a vehicle being operated erratically on 390 southbound in Monroe County, headed south towards Livingston County. A short time later, a trooper was dispatched to a report of a vehicle matching the description in a ditch on Lakeville Road in the area of Exit 9 in Avon.
The trooper allegedly found the vehicle, which was a white Honda Civic, in a ditch with Adkins. She was allegedly alone in the vehicle and operating with a driver’s permit only. Adkins allegedly failed field sobriety tests and was taken into custody for DWAI drugs.
A vehicle search was conducted and yielded three grams of marijuana, various narcotic pills, and a wooden ‘billy club.’ Section 265.1 of the NYS Penal Law specifically names a ‘billy’ as an illegal weapon.
She was released to return to Avon Town Court at a later date.
