Investigators claim a 66-year-old woman ran over another woman during a dispute in Washington, according to KOMO.
Reporters said Kathryn Giese was arrested Friday (February 26) and faces suspicion of vehicular assault and third-degree theft. She is accused of running over a woman she was allegedly caring for.
The incident started when the victim asked Giese to purchase some alcohol for her. Giese claimed she and the victim got into an argument over the victim's drinking habits. Court documents said the victim and Giese were taking items from each other, including the victim's cell phone and got into a physical altercation.
Court documents said the victim lunged on the hood of the car to get her cell phone back from Giese. The victim reportedly got off the hood, walked to the driver's side of the car and went back to the front of the vehicle. Giese allegedly accelerated and one of the rear tires ran over the lower body of the victim, according to investigators.
Officials said the victim's head hit the asphalt. Investigators claim Giese drove away but came back to inspect the victim. A witness reportedly called 911.
The victim was taken to Harborview Medical Center in critical condition, according to authorities. They said she suffered a skull fracture, broken tibia, fibia, humerus, and liver laceration.
Giese's bail is set at $1,000.
