POULSBO, Wash. (AP) — Kitsap County sheriff’s deputies say a Poulsbo woman faked a seizure in an attempt to interfere with deputies arresting her husband on a warrant.

When a deputy was escorting her away she sank to the ground and yelled that her tailbone was broken. As deputies continued to struggle with her she began shaking, but deputies said it did not seem to be a genuine seizure because she kept talking during the episode.

The Kitsap Sun reports she was jailed for obstruction.
