Police say Deette S. Rude posted bail and was released from the Clark County Jail on Thursday, hours after being arrested on suspicion of driving while impaired by drugs and causing a car crash — for the second time in three days.
Rude is alleged to have been using eight drugs that impaired her ability to drive, said Sgt. Scott Schanaker with the Clark County Sheriff’s Office. One woman was hospitalized overnight after the first of two crashes, both on Northeast 199th Street.
“It’s sad, really,” Schanaker said Friday. “The reality of it. Someone with so many problems.”
Schanaker said Rude caused a collision while impaired by drugs about 4 p.m. Wednesday, at Northeast 199th Street and 72nd Avenue. In this second crash, the other driver was not reported injured.
