PRESCOTT, Ariz. -- A Scottsdale woman allegedly tried to evacuate the Village of Oak Creek on Wednesday, claiming she heard radio transmissions from Indiana reporting a cyanide cloud heading north from Phoenix.

The night clerk at a Giant gas station called the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office around 4 a.m. after 55-year-old Christine Ann Long entered the station and told him to leave town because of the approaching cloud. Long said the only way to escape was to go north to Flagstaff.

Long claimed she heard about the cloud through radio transmissions from Indiana State Police, according to YCSO.

Long then drove to an Oak Creek Chevron station, where she told a similar story, the Sheriff's Office said.

She then headed on to the Wildflower Inn on Highway 179, where witnesses said she banged loudly on the metal doors and windows, telling guests to evacuate because of an approaching cyanide cloud.

Witnesses at the hotel described her vehicle to deputies.

Deputies caught up with Long at the Radisson Hotel in Sedona around 4:45 a.m. The Sheriff's Office said Long was in the lobby, trying to have all the guests evacuated.

Long was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct and unreasonable noise. Deputies said she showed no signs of impairment.

There was no cloud of cyanide reported.
