Women offering students rides to Kmart arrested on outstanding warrant
A Maplewood woman was arrested on an outstanding warrant Monday afternoon after she was spotted on campus offering students rides to Kmart, Washington University police said.
Rachael David, 22, of the 2000 block of Roseland Terrace, was driving a white limousine bus around the South 40 and Forsyth when police, responding to a complaint, pulled her over.
Witnesses said David was shouting into a bullhorn, offering students trips to Kayak’s Coffee and then a local Kmart. She said the bus would leave from Kayak’s Coffee every 45 minutes.
WUPD ran a background check on David and found she had an outstanding warrant for failing to appear in court.
According to St. Peters, Missouri police, David never answered the charges that she was driving without a seatbelt or auto insurance when she was pulled over by police on January 29, 2005.
She was held at the St. Louis County Jail before being released Monday night on a $120,000 bond.
David claimed she was driving the bus on behalf of Alloy Media & Marketing, a national public relations firm that specializes in targeting teenagers and college students, police said.
A woman who answered the phone at Alloy’s Chicago office late Tuesday said the company had recently partnered with national retailers to begin offering students at several college campuses rides to their stores.
