Bentleyville woman charged in assault by vehicle
EIGHTY FOUR – A Bentleyville woman is accused of twice using her vehicle to ram a pickup truck while a man was sitting in its driver’s seat Thursday night.
State police also accuse Donna Marie Combs, 55, of 230 Burkhart St., of throwing two large rocks at the truck’s windshield while it was parked in a driveway in Eighty Four about 9 p.m.
Police said Combs and the victim, whom they did not identify, were arguing about 8 p.m. at her residence when the man left in his truck and drove to 212 Meyers Road.
Combs is accused of following him there in her vehicle and using its front end to ram the truck’s driver’s side, police said.
She’s accused of throwing the rocks at the truck at that location, leaving and returning to the driveway to ram the truck a second time with her vehicle, police said.
Combs is charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, possession of an instrument of a crime, aggravated assault, simple assault, reckless endangerment, harassment, criminal mischief and disorderly conduct. A trooper also cited her for careless driving and driving an unregistered vehicle.
Combs is in Washington County jail on $100,000 bond set Friday by District Judge Ethan Ward.
