An obscene gesture directed towards an officer in an unmarked vehicle led to a Safford woman being arrested on drug charges Friday, June 4.

An Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS) officer arrested Barbara A. Hill, 21, on charges of possession of marijuana, possession of marijuana for sale, transportation of marijuana for sale, possession of a dangerous drug and possession of drug paraphernalia.

The arresting officer, DPS officer Lance Shupe, said he was getting ready to go home when the incident occurred.

The officer was driving west on Hwy. 70 from the San Jose area when he encountered the vehicle Hill was driving. He said he tried to pass the vehicle, but Hill would not let him.

"Then, when I passed her, then they decided to get right on me, and when I was turning into my office they honked the horn and gave me the one-finger salute," Shupe said.
