Officers described her as “uncooperative” and said she “was screaming outside in a residential neighborhood.” They added in the report she “was belligerent and charged at the officers.”
Hunter was subsequently arrested and brought to the Ledyard Police Department. But while waiting to be searched by a female officer, police said Hunter “pulled a pink powdery substance wrapped in paper out of her pocket and unsuccessfully tried to snort the powdery substance.”
