SANTA FE - A woman who tried to hitch a ride from a police officer in Santa Fe got a ride to jail instead. Police say 26-year-old Melissa Chavez waived down an officer yesterday, and the officer who stopped conducted a warrant inquiry. Authorities say the inquiry showed Chavez had an outstanding warrant for failure to comply with provisions of a prior charge of criminal damage to property. The officer took her to the Santa Fe County jail, where she was booked and bond was set at $500. ¶ 11:33 PM
