According to arrest records, a stolen vehicle was tracked via GPS to RISE at Riverfront Crossings on South Linn Street just after 3:30am. Police say 22-year-old Brenna Jameson of 3rd Avenue was the only person home at the time, and one of her shoes was found inside the rear of the stolen car. Jameson was reportedly in bed, showed signs of intoxication, and claimed to have not consumed any alcohol once she returned home from drinking at several bars.
