A woman led authorities on a high-speed chase in Oregon — only for police to discover invasive snails inside the car when they finally caught up with her, police said.
Anastasia Dickey, 33, of Utah, was pulled over Wednesday in Fruitland, Ore., on suspicion of driving under the influence of intoxicants, but allegedly sped off from the scene, the Argus Observer reported.
She led authorities west on Interstate 84 to Ontario, reaching speeds of 92 miles per hour, police said.
The cops attempted to deploy spikes to deflate her tires, but she continued until the vehicle became stranded on Union Pacific railroad tracks, the newspaper reported.
A search of the car turned up “a small amount of meth and in plain view, several snails,” police said.

That’s one nice thing about living in Oregon. Nice to not have to get out of the car at the gas station in the wind or rain, don’t get hands dirty at the pump, someone else does the work, and will wash your windshield.
I don’t care what you cover them in, I’m still not going to try snails.
Gosh. Didn't hear that (honestly). Don't tell anybody I quoted her song. Or acknowledged her existence in any way. I am outta here.
I see what you did there...!
Terrible. Just terrible.
“Invasive Snails”...could be the name of the French Army’s soccer team.
How do you start out in OR and go west to Ontario? East side of town there’s a Home Depot, you go past that you’re in Idaho.
92 mph... she’s definitely NOT a banana slug.
No conch salad for you?
If she were driving a Mercedes S Class the po po could all say, “Wow look at that S car go!”
Beat me to it. Last exit before Oregon.
No sales tax. Short hop to save aces bucks when I have a lot to get.
Hilarious!
