[KHTS] – A Santa Clarita woman was booked on a driving under the influence charge Sunday after allegedlystealing a taxi cab from a driver who was trying to help her out, according to Sheriff’s Station officials.
Jaclyn Kemsley, 27, of Canyon Country, who listed her occupation as waitress, was arrested Sunday on a driving under the influence charge after she failed a field sobriety test, according to a Sheriff’s Station report.
Kemsley called a cab to Lucille’s at 24201 Valencia Blvd., around 6 p.m. Sunday, according to the arrest report.
After the cab driver drove Kemsley about a mile, she asked her driver, whose name was not released by Sheriff’s Station officials, if he would help her move her car in the Westfield Valencia Town Center mall parking lot.
There was an ignition-interlock device on her car, Kemsley said, according to the Sheriff’s Station report, and so she asked the cabbie if he could move the vehicle so it didn’t get towed.
The cab driver agreed, so after locating Kemsley’s car, the driver went to move it, and when he returned to where he left his cab with Kemsley in the back seat, he noticed the car was gone and called the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies drove to the top of a Westfield Valencia Town Center mall parking lot structure near Macy’s and found Kemsley in the cab, behind the wheel, with the keys in the ignition, according to the Sheriff’s Station report.
After issuing a field sobriety test, the deputy arrested Kemsley on a driving under the influence charge.
The cab driver declined to press charges for the stolen cab, according to the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station arrest report.
She was arrested in lieu of $25,000 bail, and was released Monday morning from the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station, according to Sheriff’s Department records.
The District Attorney’s Office did not have an updated status for the case, which is expected to be heard in Valencia, as of Tuesday afternoon.

Yeah, Wendy Medeiros, it was a Yellow Cab driver. He left the keys in the cab. Poor guy. That’s what ya get when you try to help these crazy drunks out. He’s lucky that the cab was intact…..this could have ended in worse ways than it did.
