Francois, who was deputy mayor at the time, tells The Courier News of Bridgewater that she was stranded at the New Brunswick train station when she called the police chief, who sent a squad car to pick her up.
Some township officials say the request was improper.
Francois arrived at the train station on Dec. 26 from a family vacation in Pennsylvania. She says she tried calling friends for a ride, but they were all snowed in.
