CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — The woman accused of hitting two pedestrians earlier this month before driving off from the scene has been arrested.
Imec Almestica-Tisdale, 34, was taken into custody on Wednesday.
Clarksville police say the woman was driving her Chrysler 300 on Lafayette Road around 11:15 p.m. on Nov. 8. She reportedly hit two pedestrians between Orleans Drive and Darlene Drive and then fled the scene.
Almestica-Tisdale is said to have called 911 to report that her vehicle had been stolen earlier in the day, but police have since determined that to be false.

After attempting to locate her for several weeks, Clarksville police say she was arrested Wednesday at the Montgomery County Courthouse.
