A Latrobe woman was sentenced Tuesday to serve up to five years in prison on two drug-related crimes.

Fallon Handlin, 34, pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of drugs last September in Latrobe.

According to court records, Handlin was pulled over for a traffic stop when police suspected she was under the influence of a controlled substance. Fallon admitted to having recently injected heroin and smoked crack cocaine, according to police. A search of her purse found 12 stamp bags of heroin, crack, a smoking device, digital scale and more than $1,600 in cash, police said.

Police said Handlin failed a field sobriety test and a later blood test found she had both fentanyl and cocaine in her blood at the time of her arrest. According to court records, the September arrest was the fourth time she was charged with DUI-related offenses.

In court Tuesday, Westmoreland County Common Pleas Court Judge Tim Krieger sentenced Handlin to serve two to five years in prison.

She was also sentenced in another case by Judge Christopher Feliciani to serve a concurrent one- to two-year sentence for selling drugs to a confidential police informant last June.
