Overview
- Investigators say Wendy A. Clemente, 56, drove onto a Spokane County sidewalk on April 28 and chased a juvenile on a dirt bike, and the child was not injured.
- About 25 minutes after the chase, a homeowner watching a live camera reported someone trying door handles a mile away, and deputies found Clemente and her silver Ford Focus in the driveway.
- Deputies noted signs of impairment, and after she first denied using substances then admitted to drinking, they obtained a warrant for a blood draw.
- Clemente was booked on attempted first-degree assault, DUI, and first-degree criminal trespass, and officers say she resisted arrest and tried to kick a deputy.
- A court released her on her own recognizance the next day, which means pretrial release without paying bond, and the case now awaits toxicology results and further hearings.
