Lockport Union-Sun & Journal — Pepper spray was used to subdue a Lockport woman who was charged with resisting arrest after the car she was riding in was pulled over on Main Street early Friday morning, Lockport Police said.
According to police, the vehicle was pulled over for a traffic infraction just after 1 a.m. Friday. The driver, Jacob Starcher, showed possible signs of intoxication, according to the arrest report. During the course of the investigation, Connie Starcher, who also appeared to be intoxicated, became belligerent and uncooperative toward police. When police tried to take her into custody, pepper spray had to be used to subdue her, police said.

While colleges and universities have tried to step up security patrols, especially at night, reports of attacks and attempted rape continue to persist.

A less than $20, the MACE Keyguard Pepper Spray is compact, convenient, and has a key ring that easily attaches to your house, dorm room, car, and other keys you carry.
