Driver Arrested After Crossing Center Lane, Driving Toward Police Cruiser

The woman is charged with DUI and possession of marijuana.

 

A West Miffin woman was held for trial Monday on two counts of DUI and other related charges.

An Upper St. Clair police officer arrested Janet L. Cooper, 48, of West Mifflin, on Sept. 15 when her vehicle allegedly crossed the center lane on Painters Run Road, according to a criminal complaint filed with district Judge Robert Wyda's office.

The officer stated that Cooper's vehicle was driving toward his vehicle when it "abruptly swerved back into its lane of travel."

The officer also stated he found a small amount of suspected marijuana in Cooper's possession after he pulled her over.

Cooper's next hearing is scheduled for Jan. 22.
