PORTSMOUTH — A 52-year-old Swansea woman was arrested last week after she allegedly eluded police officers in two communities.
Shortly after noon on Friday, Feb. 9, officers were advised of a vehicle entering Portsmouth after its driver had eluded police in Bristol, according to police.
Patrol officers attempted to pull the vehicle over on Boyds Lane after it had entered Portsmouth, but the driver eluded them at a high rate of speed, police said.
An affidavit/arrest warrant was issued for the person who was identified as the driver, Kimberly L. Ouellette, of 241 Swansom Road, and she later turned herself in at 2nd District Court in Newport, according to police.
Ouellette was charged with reckless driving, eluding officers with a motor vehicle in a high-speed pursuit.
