Dana Point Woman Arrested Halloween Night in Carson City, Alleged Reckless Driving

CarsonNow.org is reporting a 23-year-old local woman faces misdemeanor charges of hit and run, reckless driving, marijuana possession, and driving under the influence Oct. 31.

A 23-year-old woman from Dana Point was arrested Halloween night in Carson City and is facing misdemeanor charges of hit and run, reckless driving, marijuana possession and driving under the influence after she allegedly hit a pickup and took off at a high rate of speed through a residential area, reports CarsonNow.org.

The online news agency report says: "Five witnesses report the woman had been driving at a high rate of speed "back and forth" along Ridgefield Drive at around 9 p.m., leaving skid marks in areas where she turned. A parked, unoccupied truck was damaged after the woman reportedly backed into it and then left the scene speeding. One witness stated the driver nearly rolled her vehicle three times."

The report also adds she was arrested and "was described in the police report as being "uncooperative" with questions asked by Carson City deputies. The arresting officer stated that he could smell a "moderate" odor of alcohol on her."

While searching the woman's car, deputies found two glass marijuana smoking pipes and a clear container containing less than an ounce of marijuana, according to the online agency report.

The report also says the "woman was taken to jail and was asked to take a Standardized Field Sobriety Test in which the woman refused. A blood draw was taken. Results have not yet been made available."

I hit enter in the comment and it posted - I wasn't done! Why would it post if you don't clickRead More "post comment"?! I read one story and the scrunched up left placement gave me a headache. The ad column on the right is way too big - too wide. If they made that smaller, swapped the "board" column and the news (so the news was in the middle), I think it would be easier to read.

With the ad block on the right and the boards info in the middle, it feels like the news part isRead More scrunched too far to the left.
