According to the affidavit, the victim told police that as she attempted to return to her home, Rogers got into a vehicle, struck the victim’s car, drove over a sidewalk, and attempted to run her over before crashing into the apartment building.

Rogers was booked into the Craighead County Detention Center that morning. She appeared the following Monday for her probable cause hearing.

District Judge David Boling found probable cause to charge Rogers with aggravated assault, a class D felony, and a private property accident. Her bond was set at $25,000 due to prior arrests for violent offenses.
