PEACH COUNTY, Ga. (WGXA) — A Georgia woman is in custody after a chase in which she allegedly hit multiple people and vehicles.
Local police officers were told to be on the lookout for an SUV driving recklessly.
The caller told officers that the driver was weaving into the opposite lane, nearly hitting oncoming vehicles.
As the vehicle made it to an intersection, witnesses blocked the driver in. When Byron police arrived, they tried to talk to the driver, who was uncooperative and refused officers' commands, police say.
Police put Stop Sticks under the SUV's tires so they would deflate if the driver attempted to leave. After a few minutes, the driver backed into a stopped car behind her, then pulled forward, hitting a Byron police officer and a police car.
The driver backed up again, pulled forward once more, and hit two more witnesses and another police car before driving off a flat tire due to the Stop Sticks.
Police tried to block the car again, and she allegedly backed into a third police car, then drove foward, hitting another police car for the second time. According to police, the driver caused serious damage to the vehicle.
The suspect continued for a short distance before officers were able to block her in and take her into custody.
The driver was identified as 24-year-old Sierra Hibbert, of Warner Robins. Hibbert had a small child in the vehicle with her, who was not hurt in this incident.
No officers or citizens were seriously injured.
