JOHNSON COUNTY, Ky. (WMDJ) — A Johnson County woman is facing charges after police said she appeared impaired during an incident at a local hospital involving children.

According to an arrest citation from Paintsville Police, officers were called May 5 to an ARH Hospital for a reported situation involving a woman who appeared to be under the influence.

Police said 45-year-old Amy Wells, of Thelma, told officers she had used methamphetamine before arriving at the hospital by ambulance with two minors.

During the investigation, police learned two other children had reportedly been left alone at Wells’ home.

Officers believed Wells’ condition placed all four children at risk.

Wells was charged with endangering the welfare of a minor and public intoxication involving a controlled substance.
