Chesapeake resident, Lisa Miller was arrested Monday for possession of cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia. After her arrest Miller told cops that she was trying to get to the hospital to get checked for the Ebola virus.
Police stopped 48-year-old Miller at 11:55 p.m. for a traffic infraction at Berkley Ave. & Wilson Road, in Chesapeake.
“She was subsequently arrested for possession of cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia and made comments to the officer that warranted a stop to the hospital,” said Officer Kelly O’Sullivan.
Miller told her bail bondsman over the phone from jail that she was sick after traveling from Liberia.
Miller’s claim prompted nearly a dozen people to leave a booking area while Deputies donned surgical masks and gloves.
After a trip to a local hospital, it was determined she had never been to West Africa or left the U.S.
