While doing a bar check police recognized a female from previous contacts. Knowing that she had a protection order that prohibited her from consuming alcohol, they asked her to take a breath test. The woman agreed but asked if she could use the restroom first. After waiting several minutes, the police asked an employee to check on the woman. The employee told police that the woman was trying to make herself vomit. A few minutes later the door opened to the bathroom and an officer could see the woman washing her tongue with soap. When the woman returned from the restroom, the results of the breath test were .067. The woman was placed into custody for a protection order violation.
