Tempe police reported the following incident Thursday:

A Mesa woman was arrested March 19 at West Southern Avenue and South Priest Drive on suspicion drug paraphernalia and dangerous drug possession, according to a police report.

When officers approached the woman in the passenger seat of a stopped car, they smelled marijuana inside, police reported.

The car’s driver gave a false name, and said there was some weed inside the front passenger door, according to the report.

During a routine search, officers found a bulbous glass pipe and two green containers containing marijuana, police reported.

On her way into the Tempe City Jail, the woman told police that she had a baggie with meth and “three blue pills in her panties,” according to the report.

The woman said the blue pills originally belonged to the car’s driver, police reported.

She also said the meth and pipe were her boyfriend’s, though the marijuana was all hers, according to the report.

The woman was transported to Tempe City Jail, where she was booked and held to see a judge, police reported.
