  • Woman Arrested After Crashing Into Multiple Cars In Parking Lot And Aiming For Pedestrians

    Woman Arrested After Crashing Into Multiple Cars In Parking Lot And Aiming For Pedestrians


    A woman in Mission Viejo, California has been arrested after intentionally crashing her SUV into multiple other vehicles and attempting to run over people who tried to stop her, Action News 5 reported.

    Thursday afternoon, a woman in a black SUV began deliberately ramming into other vehicles in the parking lot of an office building. When pedestrians attempted to intervene, the attacker began to aim for them as well. According to the NBC affiliate, eleven cars have been damaged.

    “She was doing reverse, forward, reverse, forward, you know, so she kind of knew what she was doing,” witness Christina Patane said in an interview.

    Many who worked within the building next to the parking lot heard the commotion, and came outside. While some began recording the driver, others tried to get the woman to stop. When those pedestrians attempted to intervene, the attacker began to aim for them as well.

    “I did not think she was going to hit me, honestly,” one of the victims explained. “I thought by standing there, that was going to deter her. Unfortunately, it had the opposite effect, and she came charging at me and that’s when I jumped.”

    Eventually, the driver fled the scene at high speeds, and California Highway Patrol was able to stop and make the arrest of Aria Martin. The 33-year-old is now facing charges of driving under the influence of drugs, felony assault with a deadly weapon, felony vandalism, and reckless driving. Martin is currently being held by Orange County on a $25,000 bail.

    Police Footage Shows Intoxicated Man Doing A Backflip To Prove Sobriety

    On November 23rd, a white Ram 1500 was pulled over by police in Broadview Heights, Ohio. When the driver, Tanner Watson, was asked to step out of the vehicle for a field sobriety test, officers say he smelled strongly of alcohol and had extremely glossy eyes. According to Cleveland 19 News, the suspect initially told police that he had 2 or 3 drinks, but the numbers increased when asked again later.

    In footage recently released by the Broadview Heights Police Department, Watson attempted to prove that he wasn’t intoxicated by performing a back flip. Though the gymnastics move entertained the officers, it did not constitute as a test used for drunk drivers.

    When instructed to look at the tip of an officer’s finger, Watson grew frustrated and said, “You went back and forth too many times. I’m getting a little dizzy over here.” He then became uncooperative and belligerent when told to walk a straight line, and was arrested for operating a vehicle while intoxicated (known as an OVI in the state of Ohio).
