Скачать или смотреть Deputies say woman drove through police tape, confronted officers at SWAT scene

— A woman was arrested early Saturday after authorities say she repeatedly drove through an active crime scene in White Center Friday night, nearly striking a deputy and hitting a patrol vehicle.

In a first court appearance on Saturday, probable cause was found to hold the woman in custody on $300,000 bond.

The incident unfolded as deputies were responding to a barricaded situation Friday night along SW 107th Way where authorities were attempting to arrest a domestic violence suspect for assault.

The area was clearly marked as closed, with several marked patrol vehicles displaying emergency lights and police tape reading “Sheriff — do not cross,” establishing a perimeter, the King County Sheriff's Office (KCSO) said. Deputies were also using speakers to give verbal commands to the barricaded subject, according to the initial report.

Despite the closure, a woman driving a Kia Sedona attempted to enter the scene, even as a patrol car indicated the road was shut down, deputies said. Authorities said she yelled at deputies, made an obscene gesture, and drove away at a high rate of speed.

The woman later returned, crossing police tape and driving directly toward several marked patrol cars that deputies were using as cover while responding to a potentially armed individual, KCSO said.

She nearly struck a sergeant, according to authorities. When the sergeant told her to stop and informed her she was under arrest, she sped off, striking a patrol car with a deputy inside. The deputy was not injured.

Officials said the woman returned to the scene a third time before driving away again.

At about 12:45 a.m. Saturday, Seattle police located her vehicle in the 5900 block of Delridge Way SW.

A deputy responded and arrested her. The deputy reported smelling cannabis coming from the vehicle, saw multiple weed pens and other smoking devices in her vehicle, and authorities said the woman admitted she had consumed alcohol earlier in the evening.

When asked why she drove through the scene, the woman told a deputy she was trying to "make a point" and that she "didn't respect police," according to court documents.
