FAIRFIELD | Police on Monday arrested a woman they said used her car to drag an officer, lead them on a chase for 30 minutes and then refuse to get out of her vehicle until she finished her beer.
Fairfield police Officer Brad Wolfe declined medical treatment. He was dragged about 30 feet in the parking lot of a Fairfield motel, Lt. Kevin Haddix said.
That prompted a pursuit that involved four Butler County police departments and reached speeds in excess of 100 mph, Haddix said.
Christina L. Willis, 36, of 4971 Pleasant Ave., Apt. 23, was arrested on the south Interstate 75 ramp at Union Centre Boulevard when county sheriff’s deputies disabled her vehicle using spiked sticks.

The arresting officer, Amy Mays, said she detected a strong odor of alcohol, though Willis’ blood-alcohol level is not known because she refused to submit to a breath test.
The incident began when Wolfe, on routine patrol, heard a disturbance at the Capri Motel, 3256 Dixie Highway, Haddix said. Wolfe began to talk to Willis, who was in the driver’s seat with the motor running and door ajar.
She moved her car backward, Haddix said, and Wolfe put his hands on the steering wheel. [red]Willis put her hands over Wolfe’s and moved the vehicle forward, dragging the officer.[/red]
Willis is in the Butler County Jail in lieu of $40,000 bond, booked on felony charges of assault on a police officer and failure to comply with order or signal of police officer. She also faces misdemeanor charges of driving under the influence of alcohol and reckless operation. She is to appear in Fairfield Municipal Court today.
