The Iowa woman accused of intentionally hitting a teenage girl with her vehicle has now been charged in a second hit and run, according to reports.
WKRN reported that the woman, Nicole, was charged Monday by Des Moines police with attempted murder in connection with a December 9 crash. Police said she left the roadway, drove onto a sidewalk and hit a 12 year old boy at an apartment complex in Des Moines. The boy had minor injuries. That crash happened less than an hour before the incident in suburban Clive, where Nicole was previously charged with attempted murder after police said her SUV hit a 14 year old girl on her way to school. The girl was hospitalized for two days with a concussion and severe bruising, according to reports.
Police officials said Nicole made derogatory statements about Latinos during her interview with officers and admitted to intentionally hitting the girl.
Separately, Nicole was charged Sunday with assault in violation of individual rights and with operating while intoxicated, second offense. Police said those charges came after she went to a convenience store, threw items at a clerk and directed racial slurs at him and other customers.
Her trial has been set for February. The charges are allegations, and the case has not been decided in court.
