Investigators say 21-year old Samantha Simonson appeared to be passed out behind the wheel of her already pulled over car but when police approached the vehicle she got out and ran off to an ally by a house nearby.

Officers on scene called for backup and apprehended Simonson following a brief foot chase and transported her to the Monmouth County Jail.

During the chase Sumonson threw a clear plastic bag into a yard which was filled "with several vials of suspected crack/cocaine."

She is charged with hindering, eluding, and possession of CDS.
