From AP, March 8:
A marriage off to a rocky start: He’s jailed after hitting her with car
SALT LAKE CITY – It wasn’t the most romantic of honeymoons. The groom was in jail yesterday, accused of trying to run over his new wife after a weekend wedding in Las Vegas.“We have a wedding certificate for … [March] 4th. They were still honeymooning when he ran her over,” said Lt. Paul Jaroscak of the Salt Lake County sheriff’s office.
Police received an emergency call Monday reporting a couple fighting in a car on Highland Drive, about 10 miles southeast of Salt Lake City.
Katie Martindale, 29, had gotten out of the car and started to walk away when James Olwine, 33, drove off the road and hit her with the car, pushing her into a snowbank, Jaroscak said.
Martindale was not seriously injured but might have a broken leg, Jaroscak said.
Olwine was booked into county jail on charges of aggravated assault with a vehicle, the lieutenant said.
Both Olwine and Martindale have jail records, Jaroscak said.
