BURLINGTON, Conn. (CBS Connecticut) – A court date Friday for a Harwinton woman accused of trying to hit a police officer with her car Thursday in Burlington.
State police say 58-year-old Eileen Pierce tried to hit an officer directing traffic at a tree-trimming site on Route 69– allegedly driving her Subaru wagon directly at him, yelling out the window, and shaking her fist. The officer quickly got out of the way, and police say Pierce narrowly missed hitting a tree crew.
When Pierce was pulled over at the Burlington-Bristol line, troopers say she rambled for several minutes, saying she was upset with police and that officers are being murdered because they tend to abuse people’s rights — noting she was angry that Donald Trump is president.
Pierce was arrested on charges of second-degree attempted assault with a motor vehicle, first-degree reckless endangerment, reckless driving, and failure to drive in the proper lane in a construction zone.
She was held overnight on $5,000 surety bond for arraignment in Bristol Superior Court.
Why would Trump want to hit an officer.... sounds a bit out of character.
Oh wait, bad headline.
Sounds like attempted murder to me.
$5,000 bond????????
She’s clearly a danger back out on the street.
I guess cops in that town like being targets of attempted murder.
Otherwise they would have charged her appropriately.
A. What an idiotic title.
B. Liberals are insane. All of them. No exceptions. Well, maybe a few. But even those few are profoundly stupid.
The left is having mental problems, as they cannot fit reality into their mental construct.
Charges should include attempted murder. SHe should go away for a long time, but probably won’t, given our screwed up “justice” system.
Police Woman Upset Trump: President Tried To Hit Officer
Meh. Lezbaru drivers...
I think she needs to be committed, for like say 8 years.
Commas, can be our friend, and a delineator.
Eileen Pierce
Just being left is a mental problem.
Those charges need to be applied to whomever wrote the headline, too.
We need to fund more mental hospitals. This liberal insanity is revealing mental disease. Trump is like shining a insanity detector on someone and they start flashing INSANE! INSANE! INSANE! INSANE! Helicopters can then swoop down, dawn straight jackets and send them to the appropriate sanatorium.
Just sayin...
Weird Pic. Too Much Valium For Her??
Lesburu...yeah, didn’t need to know more after reading that.
