TULSA, Okla. — A car crashed into the front of a Tulsa QuikTrip after a fight on June 19, Tulsa police said.
Officers said the crash was intentional after a woman was trying to hit someone with her car. The woman was arrested and identified as Ashley Blackmon.
Several people were hit by the car, but only one, a child, had to be taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
TPD said Blackmon started arguing with the victim and following her around the parking lot.
When the victim parked and went inside the store, Blackmon drove her SUV at the victim, crashing into the store.
Officers arrested Blackmon for assault with a deadly weapon. She is a tribal member and falls under the McGirt ruling.
