BOISE -- An 18-year-old Boise woman has pleaded guilty to felony aggravated battery for a road rage incident on June 1.

Boise Police say Tiffany Wallace rammed her GMC Sonoma pickup into the rear of Kia sedan several times in the parking lot of St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center.

The driver and two passengers were in the Kia. Police say no one was hurt.

The young man driving the Kia told police dispatch he was being followed by a woman in a red pickup. He said the woman had cut him off, yelled obscenities at him, and was throwing coins and packets of ranch dressing at his car. He tried to get away, but she continued to follow him.

The dispatcher told the man to drive to the parking lot of St. Al’s, which was nearby, to meet an officer. When he pulled into the parking lot, witnesses say the driver of the pickup rammed the Kia at least three to four times.

When police arrived the Kia had lots of damage on the rear bumper and the tail lights were falling out.  There were also dents from coins and salad dressing on the car.

Wallace will be sentenced Dec. 11 before Judge Timothy Hansen.

Ada County prosecutors will recommended a 10-year sentence with 2 years fixed, plus ask the court to retain jurisdiction over the case and review the sentence again in six months.  It will still be up to the judge to decide whether to accept those recommendations.
