COLLEGE STATION, TX — A woman has been arrested after College Station said she confirmed taking and operating a vehicle without the consent of its owner.
Rachael Jeanne Morris, 37, has been charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.
On April 6, around 12:50 A.M. a College Station officer responded to an agency assist request over at Microtel Inn & Suites on 1820 Ponderosa Drive; this request was made by the Grimes County Sheriff's Office.
According to the probable cause statement, Morris had broken a criminal trespass warning in an attempt to kidnap her daughter from her ex-boyfriend.

As worded in court documents, Morris was reportedly found asleep in the back seat of said vehicle, parked at Microtel Inn & Suites.
