Collie said. “Saunders turned south onto 16th Street sliding around the corner.  We shut off the emergency equipment and stopped as Saunders continued south on 16th Street at a high rate of speed.  At Mitchell Saunders failed to stop for the stop sign and went airborn through the intersection continuing south on 16th Street out of sight.”

She’s scheduled for an arraignment July 26.  Bail has been set at $10,000 cash only.
