Police arrested a 34-year-old Myrtle Beach woman in connection with attempted murder and unlawful conduct toward a child on Wednesday after she allegedly tried to hit someone with a car following an argument over a cinnamon bun, according to a police report.
Amy Joe Derepentigny was charged with attempted murder and unlawful neglect of a child or helpless person and was booked into the J. Reuben Long Detention Center, according to jail records.
Police were called about 2 p.m. Tuesday to the 400 block of 28th Avenue North for an incident involving a car crash.
An investigation revealed that Derepentigny and the victim of the alleged attempted murder had argued at a local gas station about not having enough money for a cinnamon bun before driving to the home where the incident happened, police said.
Derepentigny told the victim, “If you step in front of this car, I’ll run you over,” according to the arrest warrant.
Derepentigny then quickly accelerated toward the victim and attempted to strike him in a 2000 Ford Expedition, police said.
Authorities said there was a 13-year-old child in the front seat during the incident, so Derepentigny was also charged with unlawful neglect of a child.
The victim told police that he did some “high stepping” to get out of Derepentigny’s way when she allegedly drove toward him, and she then ran the vehicle into the fence of a nearby apartment building, according to the report

Hold my buns and watch this!
She’d better call Saul - he’s working in a Cinnabon now.
Well she is not Amish, I will tell you that.
That’s Dave Barry’s famous line.
Journalists suck.
Story leaps from bun fighting to “If you step in front of this car...”
The author refuses to say if “victim “ was chased pdown by driver who aimed the car at him, or if the dumbass blocked the path of her car and refused to move.
If I am on the jury and find out the other party was the instigator by puttingbhimself in frontbof her carcand refusingbto move, no waybI vote she is guilty.
What a wretchedly written article. Just abysmal. And typical of todays journalists. Our schools really have gone to pot.
So the guy is a friend or boyfriend of the driver and was riding in the same car. He goes to unload the car but defies her warning not to step in front of the car.
2 nutcases who are perfect for each other. They refuse to describe the guy or give a name or any details. Stupid people are stupid.
Small town news reporting at its best!
I especially like the guy from across the street who had no idea what really happened giving his expert analysis.
I would have taken that warning to heart.
I ask you people, who here hasn’t tried to run someone down over a cinnamon bun or some other baked good?
