AMHERST, Ohio - It wasn't Laurie Ralston's resume that got the attention of police. It was her record.
Ralston applied Thursday for a job as a dispatcher with the Amherst police department. When they did a background check, police quickly found out she has 17 traffic convictions, including seven speeding tickets and two citations for driving without a license.
Ralston was called in Friday for what she was told would be an interview. Instead, she was arrested and charged with failing to appear in court and driving without a license.
Ralston said she had no idea police were after her.
"It was just a little excessive to have that type of background and try to get a shot at this type of job," Lt. Joseph Kucirek said
