Early last week, a Colorado woman who reportedly dodged the police multiple times was arrested for over a dozen charges when they finally caught her.

On January 27, Mesa County sheriff’s deputies spotted a vehicle that had escaped from them several times when they tried to pull them over. When they eventually located the car and tried to talk to the woman behind the wheel she took off. The authorities decided to try to capture her, so additional deputies assisted and formed a perimeter around the neighborhood with their cars to keep her from going too far. Shortly after, they saw the vehicle had been abandoned at a residence in the area.

While still in the neighborhood, the deputies encountered a vehicle without headlights. They got the driver to stop, and she reportedly gave the officers the wrong name and told them she borrowed the car from a relative. When they learned the address of the vehicle’s registered owner, they went to the home and reported that the individual said they did not loan the car to anyone.

Around 11:00 PM on the evening of December 29, a 41-year-old woman from Old Bridge went to Gabriella’s Italian Steakhouse in Red Bank. She reported that she stayed until they closed at 1:00 AM. When she left the establishment in her new Volvo, the woman ended up parking in the lot at Volcafe. She allegedly parked the car in a way that caught the eye of an officer from the Red Bank Police Department as he drove by, and he believed it looked suspicious.

The officer drove into the lot and parked, and when he approached the car on the passenger’s side, he asked for the woman’s license, registration, and insurance. Footage from the body-worn camera shows the driver rooting around her purse, glove compartment, and a bag in the back of the vehicle, but she reportedly failed to produce the documents. She explained that she only had the car for less than a week. When asked if she had been drinking, the woman said she had no more than two or three glasses of wine in the two hours she was at the restaurant. The officer saw a glass of what appeared to be wine in the car, and the woman told him it belonged to her friend who caught a ride with her.
