Police arrested a pregnant junkie mother in Evansville, Indiana after they found her passed out behind the wheel at a stoplight with her young child in the backseat.
Natalie Onay, 22, faces charges of child neglect, possession of a narcotic, possession of paraphernalia, possession of a syringe, and operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated.
Police received a 911 call that a woman passed out behind the wheel near an intersection at 11 p.m. on Monday.
The driver in the car behind Onay said the light cycled at least twice, and Onay did not move. When the driver honked at Onay, she was so messed up that she rolled her car forward, stopped, and was very close to getting in an accident.
Police had to pull Onay out of the car. DCS responded to the scene and took custody of her 10-month-old in the backseat.
A syringe and .10 grams of heroin were found in her car.
Officers say Onay admitted to injecting heroin about 10 minutes before she passed out. She also told police she’s five months pregnant. Disgusting.
Onay was transported to the hospital and then the Vanderburgh County Jail where she later bonded out.
