Enid woman who had to poop during traffic stop becomes Internet star

Last week, KFOR's Peyton Yager broke the incredibly clickable story about an Enid woman named Emily Ownings who tried to convince a police officer to let her go home and take a shit during a traffic stop that eventually led to a brief police chase and arrest.

Emily did this because:

A) She had a warrant out for her arrest
B) She had meth in her car
C) When you gotta go, you gotta go

The story has since gone viral on the web. It's been picked up by most major news outlets who, like us, love to exploit and laugh at the embarrassing exploits of dumb criminals with substance abuse issues. Before we get to that, let's take a second look of video of the arrest from TMZ:


Wow! Talk about a shitty way to celebrate your 28th birthday! If only she would have had a Braum's bag on the floorboard – then the cop would have bought her excuse with no questions asked!
