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.

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.

Clemente was booked into the Spokane County Jail on charges including attempted first-degree assault, DUI and first-degree criminal trespass.

The sheriff's office said a court commissioner ordered her released the following day on her own recognizance without needing to post bond.

No injuries were reported in either incident.
