GREENSBURG, Pa. (KDKA) -- Greensburg Police say a woman just released from the county jail ended up back in custody after she allegedly was getting into strangers' cars, demanding they drive her to Pittsburgh and asked people to provide her with illegal drugs.

Investigators say 49-year-old Amie Slocum walked out of the Westmoreland County Jail and made her way to a Sheetz on Harvey Avenue.

When she arrived, witnesses told the police Slocum went inside the store ordered some food, bought some beer and then relieved herself on the dining area floor.

When she got to the parking lot, police say Slocum went about trying to get a lift to her Pittsburgh home.

"I believe the female was trying to get a ride out of town, but instead just decided to stay in Greensburg and have a couple beers and found herself in more trouble," said Greensburg Police Captain Shawn Denning. "She was asking customers for money, trying to get a ride, trying to get into their vehicles. She was also asking the customers for crack cocaine."

Taken into custody, Slocum faces indecent exposure and other counts. She's free pending her preliminary hearing in August.
