SOMERSET, Pa.—A southwestern Pennsylvania woman has been ordered to stand trial on charges she offered to bribe a police officer to avoid having her father's car towed and impounded after she was stopped and found to have a suspended license.

The Daily American of Somerset ( http://bit.ly/NPgxSQ) reports 29-year-old Lindsay Burrows, of Somerset, waived her right to a preliminary hearing Tuesday on charges stemming from the incident April 24 in Somerset.

Somerset Officer Christopher Pile says he stopped Burrows because he mistakenly believed she had some outstanding arrest warrants. In the process, however, he learned her license was suspended and told her he had to impound the car.

Burrows wanted to avoid that because the car belongs to her father. She was calling her mother for assistance when she allegedly asked Pile, "Do you take bribes? I've got money."
