Springfield woman arrested for DUI, files false report after hitting trooper
CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) – On Tuesday morning, a woman from Springfield allegedly struck a state trooper, who was conducting a traffic stop on the Westbound side of the Mass Pike in Chicopee. Project Lifesaver launches in Chicopee to help locate wandering individuals 22News obtained a copy of the police report to learn how investigators could track down a suspect. Police made a quick arrest, charging 32-year-old Naisha Rodriguez in connection with the crash. According to the police report, Rodriguez was driving a work-issued car at the time of the crash. After the incident, Rodriquez allegedly told her employer that five people attacked her and the car was stolen. But her story about the alleged attack and car theft was debunked by surveillance video. When people were dispatched to her home, Rodriguez ended up filing a police report with the same information, which she told her employer. The Subaru was later found on Windemere Street in Springfield with pieces of the trooper's patrol jacket and blood stains reportedly on the car. Officers then obtained an arrest warrant and took the suspect into custody. She was arraigned in court Wednesday on charges of driving under the influence, witness intimidation, leaving the scene of the crash, and falsely reporting a stolen vehicle. At the arraignment Wednesday morning, state police cruisers and troopers filled the parking lot and courtroom of Chicopee District Court in support of the injured trooper. Rodriguez pleaded not guilty to the charges and was held on a $500,00 cash bail. The conditions of her bail include not using any devices while driving, staying away from alcohol, and wearing a GPS tracker. Rodriguez is set to be back in court for a pre-trial hearing on July 10th at 12pm.
