GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. — A woman who tried to break into the Mesa County jail after demanding that she be arrested instead of her brother got her wish.
Twenty-year-old Monique Deshawn Armstrong was being held at the jail Tuesday, a day after authorities say she called 911 to demand she be booked and her brother released.
The Daily Sentinel reports he was arrested Sunday night on suspicion of driving under the influence.
Soon after the call, the sheriff’s office says Armstrong was found in the jail yard, after getting past the chain-link and razor wire fence that surrounds it, and was throwing landscaping rocks at a jail window.
She asked to be arrested and the deputies obliged. A few hours later, her brother posted bond and was released.
