LAS VEGAS (KLAS) – A woman faces more than a dozen charges after trying to escape a traffic obstruction with three teenagers in the vehicle in North Las Vegas on Wednesday night.
Angela Peavy, 32, was arrested and taken to the Clark County Detention Center, where she is currently being held on bail of $ 27,000. She should appear in court on Monday.
Peavy faces three crimes: resisting an officer with a firearm, attacking an officer with a deadly weapon, and disobeying an officer while putting others at risk. She is also charged with child abuse / neglect (endangering), one gross misdemeanor, and 10 other misdemeanors.
The Nevada Highway Patrol tried to stop them on Craig Road and Clayton Street. A chase ensued as soldiers chased a Penske rental truck until the chase ended on Craig and Martin Luther King Boulevard, about a mile away.
According to soldiers, there was a fight and the driver of the truck pulled out a gun. A North Las Vegas police officer cursed the driver.
