A 36-year-old woman was arrested this week on suspicion of trespassing after Boulder police said she locked herself in the bathroom of a local Wendy's restaurant with a dead dog stuffed in a duffel.
After Wendy Louise Washum, of Aurora, had been locked in the restroom for 30 minutes Monday, restaurant employees started complaining of a foul odor, according to Boulder police.
Washum told restaurant employees she "had something in her teeth from the Frosty she purchased and was trying to clean her teeth," an officer wrote in a police report. "Washum's teeth were primarily yellow, and she stated her teeth were white before she had the Frosty."
When police officers arrived at the restaurant at 1965 28th St., they persuaded the woman to open the door and discovered she was carrying a large duffel with a dead dog inside, police spokeswoman Sarah Huntley said.
