Signs of impairment during a traffic stop Tuesday night led to the discovery of multiple syringes and prescription drugs, police said.
Jasmine E. Diab, 38, was charged with of possession of narcotics, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of prescription only drugs and driving under the influence, according to police.
At about 9:30 p.m., officers stopped a vehicle near State Route 347 and West Hathaway Avenue, police said.
According to a probable cause statement, the driver of the vehicle was identified as Diab, who exhibited signs of drug impairment, including sweating profusely and rapid, uncontrollable body movements.
Police said they observed what they believed to be “track marks” from apparent drug use on both of Diab’s arms.
A records check on Diab showed she had never been issued a driver’s license, police said.

Diab was booked into Pinal County Jail on the charges, police said.
