Woman Pulled Over For A Fake DUI And A Marriage Proposal

DAVID GREENE, HOST:

Good morning. I'm David Greene. A woman in Palmdale, Calif., was pulled over by the sheriff's department. It seemed like a typical DUI. She is seen in a video outside her car doing a sobriety test. An officer had her walk in a straight line then instructed her to turn around, and that is when she saw another officer on his knee holding a ring. It was a stunt. She did say yes. On Facebook, the Palmdale Sheriff's Department welcomed their colleague's fiancee to the tan-and-green family. You're listening to MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
