A Delaware woman is facing multiple charges after troopers say she hit a motorcycle that was driven by her husband with another woman riding on the back of the bike.
Delaware State Police say on Thursday, just after 5:20 PM, troopers were dispatched to the area of Phillips Branch Road and Harbeson Road for a fight in progress. Once on scene, troopers say they noticed a white Nissan Armada on the edge of the roadway with substantial damage to its passenger's side, and a Kawasaki motorcycle that was laid on its side. Police say they encountered the driver of the motorcycle, a 27-year-old male and his wife, 25-year-old Yeiricel Contreras-Garcia, who was standing next to him arguing.
According to the report, Contreras-Garcia had struck the motorcycle with her vehicle (Nissan Armada) because she saw her husband driving with his mistress on the back of the bike. After hitting the motorcycle, authorities say the Contreras-Garcia then proceeded to engage in a physical altercation with the 28-year-old Selbyville woman, who was riding on the back of the bike.
The 28-year-old victim was taken by ambulance to a local area hospital where she was later transferred to another hospital and admitted with serious injuries. The 27-year-old man declined medical treatment at the scene.
The 25-year-old Millsboro woman was arrested and charged with assault first degree, possession of a deadly weapon during the commission of a felony (2 counts), assault second degree, reckless endanger first degree (2 counts), criminal mischief, and reckless driving.
She was committed to the Delores J. Baylor Womens Correctional Institution on $70,000 secured bond.
