Police found Sauerbeck, 34, and 28-year-old Lily Miller, of Lakewood, hiding in the bushes. They were both arrested.

She was charged with obstructing official business and driving under the influence.Police said Miller has an extensive driving and arrest record, and that at the time of the arrest she was obviously in no shape to drive.They were released on bond and will appear in Avon Lake Municipal Court on June 1. The Indians had no immediate comment on the arrest. Sauerbeck signed with the Indians in March 2004. He has a wife and two children in West Bradenton, Fla.
