A west suburban woman was drinking vodka to celebrate [Department of Children and Family Services] dropping an investigation against her when she was arrested Saturday afternoon after witnesses saw her carrying her 3-month-old child "as if she had a football under her armpit," police said.
About 4:30 p.m. Saturday officers were dispatched to the northbound lanes of the 5400 block of South Harlem Avenue for a well being check involving Jamie L. Riley, 27, who was intoxicated while outside with her child, a Chicago police report said.

Riley told police on the scene during an interview “I was drinking vodka earlier, celebrating with my husband because DCFS dropped their investigation,’’ the report said.
Paramedics took the baby to MacNeal Hospital because he had a laceration on his nose and a Summit officer told a Chicago officer that Riley had become belligerent and wouldn’t answer questions about the child's well being, according to the report.
Riley was placed into custody and taken to the Chicago Lawn District police station for processing. While officers were taking her there, she told them: “I’m going to p---kiss all over your car,’’ and officers saw that she urinated on herself, according to the report.
