Woman wanted for ramming police cruiser arrested

A woman who has been wanted since last month for allegedly ramming a London police cruiser has now been arrested.

London police issued an arrest warrant for 26-year-old Taylor L. Eugenio on charges of dangerous operation of a vehicle and mischief over $5,000 following the May 22 incident.

According to police, officers were in the area of Queens Avenue and English Street when they saw a wanted man getting into a vehicle. Officers parked a marked cruiser behind the car and attempted to arrest the man. The driver of the vehicle proceeded to crash into the cruiser, twice, before getting out and running off.

The wanted man is alleged to have resisted arrest. A second man arrived and attempted to help the wanted man by assaulting an officer, police said. One of the men then damaged a cruiser. Both men were eventually taken into custody and charged.

Damage to the police cruisers was estimated at approximately $7,000.

Police searched the area for the woman, but came up empty handed. An arrest warrant for Eugenio was issued three days later. On Tuesday, police announced they had taken the 26-year-old woman into custody. She is scheduled to appear in court in relation to the charges on June 27.
