Keirstan Underwood, 21, of Cairo, was parked behind the Dairy Queen in Ellenboro after the business closed, according to court documents.
Deputies with the Ritchie County Sheriff's Department stopped to ask why, and while speaking with Underwood, a deputy noticed a glass marijuana smoking device and had her step out of the vehicle for further questioning.
