According to the arrest affidavit, when one of the officers opened the door of the car to restrain the woman, the officer felt a "prick" on the middle finger of his left hand. A fellow officer saw orange syringe cap fall off of the woman's lap and un-capped syringe which contained a dark, brown colored liquid was lying in plain view on the driver's seat.

Williams was charged with possession of a controlled substance.
