A Florida mayor has been arrested for allegedly using the handicap placard of a woman who died in 2012, authorities said.
Davenport mayor Teresa Darlene Bradley, who is known professionally as Darlene Bradley, was arrested Tuesday and charged with criminal use of a deceased person's ID, possession of an altered or counterfeit decal and unlawful use of a handicap placard, according to a press release from the Polk County Sheriff's Office. Davenport is located about an hour southwest of Orlando.
Bradley was booked into the Polk County Jail and was later released after posting a $2,250 bail, the sheriff's office said.
Last month, the sheriff's office received information that Bradley was parking in various handicap spots although "she was not known to be handicapped or have a placard issued to her," according to the press release.
