A La Crosse woman on a court order not to consume alcohol drank herself to a 0.30 percent blood-alcohol content, stripped to her underwear and attempted to use her neighbor’s yard waterslide, police said.

A homeowner on the 900 block of Winneshiek Road reported a woman wearing only bra and thong panties was trying to use a Slip ’n Slide with a 5-year-old boy about 6 p.m. Wednesday, according to La Crosse police reports.
Officers found Margaret Bachop, 41, on the front steps of her home at 1204 Winneshiek Road, screaming about lost keys, according to reports.

Another nearby neighbor reported Bachop had run into her yard and wrapped herself in bed sheets from a clothesline.

Bachop is expected to be charged Thursday in La Crosse County Circuit Court with lewd and lascivious behavior and disorderly conduct.

She was released from the La Crosse County Jail on Thursday on a $200 signature bond.
