The Law Firm of David N. Jolly: DUI Defense Attorneys

Posted by John de Leon


Just before 1 a.m. Saturday, an eyewitness called 911 to report that a woman in her 30s, driving a red 2004 Ford Mustang, had struck a metal barrier at Harvard Avenue and East Pine Street and drove off.

At 1:20 a.m., police stopped the car in the 1400 block of Northwest Leary Way. The 37-year-old driver was apparently intoxicated and was arrested on suspicion of DUI. While she was being driven to the East Precinct the woman became violent and kicked the rear window out of the patrol car.

At the precinct, as officers were escorting the woman to a holding cell, she turned and spit in the face of one of the officers. That officer was treated at Harborview Medical Center for biological hazard exposure and released.

The woman was booked into the King County Jail for investigation of assault on an officer and investigation of malicious mischief. Investigating officers requested additional charges of DUI.
