Woman Gets Drunk, Steals Ferry and Declares She's Jack Sparrow

A drunk woman has been jailed after she stole a 100-seat ferry and smashed into boats, yelling, “I’m Jack Sparrow! I’m a pirate!”

Jackie Juggs, 51, boarded the 45ft Dart Princess with a friend after a two-day bender, where she got drunk on Lambrini and admitted sniffing tippex, which causes hallucinations.

Mrs Juggs called police, shouting: “What are you going to do now?” and “Peel me, I'm a orange!”

Thirty police, a lifeboat crew, Coastguards and paramedics had to be called.

Juggs caused a lot of damage to the ferry and was also fined for assaulting an ambulance technician.
