FORT SMITH, Ark. (AP) -- Getting tanked has a whole new meaning for a woman on the lam. Brandy Shante Moss, 19, decided that police wanting to talk to her about a domestic dispute complaint would never think to look in a septic tank. They did.
Officer Danny Baker found Moss in her hideout and stepped on the tank to arrest her.
The tank collapsed on Moss, injuring her badly enough that she had to go to the hospital.
Baker and his colleagues responding to the call Tuesday had seen a man and a woman run from a house to an abandoned one nearby. The woman, Moss, found the septic tank behind the abandoned house.
After being treated, Moss was booked into the Sebastian County Jail on suspicion of fleeing apprehension and two counts of third-degree domestic battery. She also was held on warrants for contempt and failure to comply with a court order.:vom:
