Cincy Radio: Lisa Wells Cruiser Cam Video Released

Lisa Wells
Cruiser camera video of a state trooper arresting WLW 700 AM radio personality Lisa Wells on Interstate 75 last month raises new questions about what kind of non-prescribed pills the trooper reported finding in Wells' car.

Wells, 37, was charged with drug possession and driving under impairment.

WCPO-TV9 reports in the video, a trooper identifies the pills as Adderall and Hydrocodone. Last week, WLW talk-show host Bill Cunningham said the pills were Percocet.

"There's a bunch of loose pills, ma'am, on your seat. What are they?" a trooper asks Wells after pulling her over near Piqua.

"On my seat?" she asks.

"Yep, there's three of them. They're loose pills – all different," the trooper says. "What were they?"

"I don't know," Wells says.

The trooper leaves her alone in the cruiser and walks back to Wells' car. She moans and breathes heavily.

When he comes back, the trooper says he identified one of the pills as Adderall, a stimulant.

"Adderall?" she says, sounding surprised. "I don't have a prescription for that."

Later, after Wells is handcuffed and put under arrest, another trooper identifies one of the pills as Hydrocodone, a narcotic pain medication.

That trooper asks Wells if she can identify any of the pills.

"No," she says.


WLW's program director has said Wells, a defense attorney and part-time fill-in host, would remain off the air until her legal case plays out.
