A North Platte woman is facing charges after she allegedly drove drunk with a child in her car.

At around 12:10 a.m., on July 18, officers with the North Platte Police Department were dispatched to the area of 500 West 9th Street on the report of a verbal disturbance.

A responding officer saw a vehicle blocking the street with two male subjects standing outside of it.  Additionally, the officer observed a discarded beer bottle on the street in front of the car.

The officer stopped to determine if the vehicle was involved in the disturbance and identified the driver as Sheree Rodriguez.

The officer suspected that Rodriguez was under the influence of alcohol, and complied with her request to administer a preliminary breath test, which indicated she was over the legal limit to operate a vehicle.

According to investigator John Deal, Rodriguez had a 6-year-old child in the car with her.

As a result, Rodriguez was placed under arrest and charged with driving under the influence of liquor and child abuse.

No other arrests were made, but Deal said officers did break up a loud party in the area.

Rodriguez was jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center.
