A 25-year-old woman from El Paso, named Vanessa Lorelli, Ronnabaum, got arrested after allegedly stealing a Chevy Equinox and slamming it right into a police cruiser during a wild chase. It all started when a 54-year-old guy reported his 2009 SUV missing from a convenience store lot. Cops spotted her driving it near Madame Morals Drive and Giles Road in the lower valley, tried to pull her over, but she bolted, even weaving into, oncoming traffic. Two officers ended up hurt in the crash. They got rushed to the hospital, but were released later that day. These cops had been on the force for three years, and while injury details stayed under wraps, it shook up the department for sure. She's facing two counts of aggravated assault on a public sermon, plus theft, evading arrests in a vehicle, and driving while intoxicated. No lawyers listed for her yet in court records. Ronnabaum got booked into county jail on Thursday, March 26th, with a $115,000 bond, and as
a Friday, March 27th, she still locked up while the case moves forward. Local news, powered by AI, this is El Paso News Today. I'm Corey with The Story.
