A Washington state driver allegedly chased a boy on a dirt bike onto a sidewalk and tried to run him down before later attempting to enter a stranger’s home — only to be released from jail the next day.
Wendy A. Clemente, 56, drove onto a sidewalk on a residential street and tried to hit the boy during a reckless outburst around 5:05 p.m. Monday, the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office said. The child was not injured.
A witness captured video of the silver sedan chasing the child down a sidewalk. Deputies quickly identified Clemente as the suspect and began searching for her.
About an hour later, deputies responded to a second call just a mile away for a suspected burglary. A homeowner monitoring his security cameras reported a woman trying door handles at his property.

Deputies arrived and found Clemente in the driveway, where they took her into custody.
Investigators said Clemente initially denied wrongdoing and claimed she had simply stopped at the property to find other dogs for her dog to socialize with. She told deputies that she didn’t know the homeowner and that she didn’t remember the earlier incident involving the child.
Deputies noted signs of impairment. Clemente first denied drinking but later admitted to consuming alcohol. When officers attempted to place her in a patrol car, authorities said she resisted and tried to kick a deputy.
