DOTHAN, Ala. (AP) - Police say a 21-year-old Dothan woman faces
a felony assault charge after running over her mother.
Police arrested Ciara Marie Cooper and charged her with felony
first-degree assault. She was charged with striking her 46-year-old
mother, Ruby Russell, with her vehicle after an argument.
Authorities said the pair argued inside the car. Russell was
critically injured after she left the vehicle.
Russell was taken to a local hospital and police said Cooper was
also taken to a hospital where she was treated for intoxication.
If convicted Cooper faces two to 20 years in prison.
