A Heartland woman was put in emergency protective custody, after she asked Omaha Police Officers to kill her.
The night of Wednesday, October 15th started off bad and got worse for the 26-year old woman.
Omaha Police were sent to the area of 72nd and Sorensen Parkway to look for an erratic and reckless driver.
Officers pulled the La Vista woman over in a nearby parking lot and became suspicious because of her demeanor.
A K-9 was brought in for a "free air sniff" and hit on what police have determined was marijuana in the glove box. The woman was arrested for driving under the influence of drugs, possession of marijuana, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
From there the story trends to the bizarre.
While being taken in for booking the 26-year old managed to get her foot beneath the protective partition in the cruiser. According to police reports she began kicking the officer and actually broke two of the cruisers cup-holders.
It was when the woman allegedly made statements about not wanting to live, and asking the officers to kill her she was taken into emergency protective custody and handed over to the staff of Immanuel Medical Center.
