She was able to get the car back on the roadway and continue to flee on Eagle Way

She ran off the road again at the intersection of Bradshaw Road and was boxed in by deputies and Hopkinsville Police.

Kelly would not turn off the car or show her hands and deputies had to bust out the window to arrest her.

She is charged with first-degree fleeing or evading police, third-degree assault of a police officer, resisting arrest, first-degree criminal mischief, possession of meth and multiple charges of wanton endangerment.

Kelly also had an outstanding warrant for theft
