Barricaded Woman Surrenders To Redmond Police

REDMOND, OR -- A woman barricaded herself in a vehicle outside the Shepherd’s House Redmond shelter Tuesday morning, prompting a response by the Central Oregon Emergency Response Team (CERT).

According to Redmond Police, around 6 a.m., the 49-year-old tried to run down several people in the parking lot and threatened to assault others with a hammer.

Officers deployed STOP sticks to prevent her from driving away, but she then locked herself in the car. CERT negotiators responded, but were unable to convince her to get out of the vehicle. She eventually surrendered after being pepper sprayed.

The woman was taken to jail on charges of Assault, Attempted Assault, Reckless Driving, Elude and Resisting Arrest.
