Elude, MVA, Assault on a Public Safety Officer

Bend Police Dept. - 02/06/19

On February 6th, 2019 at about 10:43 A.M. Bend Police Officers attempted to stop Kristen Adams who was driving a 2003 Saturn passenger car.  Police Officers were attempting to arrest Adams for a previous crime that occurred in Redmond.  When Officers activated their lights to stop Adams, she sped away.  The officer did not pursue the suspect out of safety concerns. 

On February 6th at about 1047 A.M., a citizen (Paul Seronko) reported that a vehicle had crashed into his front yard on Eastview Dr.  Seronko advised the vehicle was stuck in his yard and it was occupied by one female.  Seronko provided dispatchers with the license plate number for the vehicle, which matched the vehicle driven by Adams.  Officers responded to the Eastview Dr. address. Adams was combative and fought with officers while they attempted to arrest her for multiple crimes.  Adams injured two Bend Police Officers during the incident.  Adams received minor injuries in the crash and she was transported to St. Charles Medical Center for evaluation.
