A Florida woman accused of stealing a car in Kansas was awaiting extradition from the Warren County Jail this morning.

Jazalyn Rosado, 26, of Miami, Fla., was arrested Monday night after the 2009 Honda Civic she was driving eastbound on Interstate 20 ran out of gas near the Flowers exit, Sheriff Martin Pace said.

Deputy Robert Taylor was on patrol and stopped to help Rosado, but after checking the license plate, Taylor discovered the vehicle had been stolen in Kansas, Pace said.

Rosado was held in the Warren County Jail this morning and was expected to have an initial appearance this morning where she could waive extradition to Kansas to face auto theft charges.
