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.
