A Burger King manager checked on the woman around 2:30 p.m. Friday after she’d been holed up in a handicap stall for an “extended period.” She found the woman locked in the stall speaking incoherently, and assumed she was “on something,” a police report said. Meanwhile, another officer and a medic went into the bathroom, where they found Elizabeth D. Sanders, 26, of Waverly, sitting on a toilet, a suspected ball of heroin allegedly on the floor beside her. When police and medics found her in a Burger King stall, a ball of heroin allegedly was found on the floor beside her. When the medic looked into the toilet, he saw a newborn infant lying face up and told Sanders to stand, which caused the baby to roll over face down into the water. A medic quickly scooped up the child and noted that it was breathing. Upon arrival, police reported finding Zachary T. Frey, 26, of Chillicothe, passed out behind the wheel of a purple Saturn Ion which was still running. Officers were able to rouse Frey, who was described in the police report as drooling, having slurred speech, pinpoint pupils, and kept "nodding off." Frey, who police said refused medical treatment Friday, was charged with operating a vehicle while impaired and possession of drug paraphernalia.
