DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - A Grimes day care worker has been arrested after sheriff’s deputies say she showed up to work drunk.

The Des Moines Register reports (https://dmreg.co/2lvPp33 ) that First Steps Child Care officials called deputies about 8:30 a.m. Friday when the 43-year-old Grimes woman showed up intoxicated.

The woman was arrested on suspicion of neglect or abandonment of dependent persons, public intoxication and a probation violation.

Polk County Sheriff’s Lt. Rich Blaylock blood alcohol content levels were measured, and officers determined on-scene that Murphy was drunk because of her “bloodshot eyes, slurred speech and wobbly gait.”
