Police pulled over Megan Holman, 25, who was riding in a silver Power Wheels truck about a mile from her home, The State newspaper reported. Holman appeared to be under the influence of a narcotic or drug while she drove on the road, according to the incident report.

Holman told police she rode the toy truck as part of a scavenger hunt, The State reported. In the incident report, officers wrote “she wanted to be a professional wrestler like her father and this was how to do it."

Information on her father was not noted in the incident report.

Police arrested her and charged her with public intoxication, according to local media reports. Holman was released the same day on a personal recognizance bond.
