On March 2, 2013 deputies responded to the intersection of Spring Valley Drive and Valley Court in Lexington Park, Maryland to check the welfare of a female who was lying in the roadway.
Upon arrival deputies contacted the woman who was later identified as Buffy Marie Moore, 43 of Lexington Park, Maryland. Initially Moore was unresponsive and appeared to be asleep. Moore was positioned in the roadway hindering the flow of traffic.
Deputies could smell a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage upon her breath and person. As Moore began speaking, it became obvious to deputies she was intoxicated. Moore refused to move from the roadway and refused to provide deputies with any information regarding a friend or relative who could respond to pick her up.
Moore was arrested and charged with disorderly intoxication, disturbing the peace and failing to obey a lawful order of a police officer.
