GEORGETOWN — A Georgetown woman faces several charges because police say the woman was intoxicated and allowed an unlicensed 15-year-old to drive while the woman and her 14-month-old child were riding in the car.

On Tuesday night, a Georgetown police officer saw a 1999 maroon Toyota Camry traveling the wrong way on a one-way street, according to a police report. The officer went to the vehicle and saw girl behind the wheel. The police report said Allie C. Crenshaw, 33, smelled of alcohol, had bloodshot eyes and seemed generally confused. The officer found an open container of alcohol in the vehicle. The police report does not state the relationship between Crenshaw and the 15-year-old. The toddler was her daughter.

Crenshaw was charged with third-degree unlawful transaction with a minor, permitting an unlicensed person to drive, alcohol intoxication in a public place, and possession of an open container in a vehicle. 

Crenshaw is scheduled to appear in Scott County District Court at 1 p.m. Thursday.
