A Ridgefield woman was allegedly driving under the influence when her car went off the road and hit a tree stump, seriously injuring her passenger.
Jenna D. Raffelson, 26, had an estimated blood-alcohol level of 0.143 at the time of the Nov. 12 crash in the 28000 block of Northwest 51st Avenue in Ridgefield, court records state. In Washington, a blood-alcohol level of 0.08 or more is considered evidence of drunken driving.
Her passenger, 43-year-old Sherree Clark, suffered lacerations to her right kidney and adrenal gland, as well as several fractured bones, including multiple right-side ribs, and her upper right arm, according to an affidavit of probable cause.
