Woman Attacks Officer After Deadly Crash In Macomb County: Police

WARREN, MI — A 27-year-old woman is facing charges in connection with attacking an officer after a deadly car crash in Warren last weekend, according to the Macomb County Prosecutor's Office.

Diamond Leann Glenn was charged with assaulting, resisting and obstructing a police officer, which is a two-year felony, and officials said further charges may be added.

She was placed in jail and given a $100,000 bond. She must wear an alcohol tether if she posts bail. Her next court date is scheduled for Jan. 2.

Officers responded to a crash that happened last Saturday on Mound and Chicago roads in Warren and involved a Ford Escape and a Chevy Silverado, according to prosecutors.

When officers arrived, they walked up to the Escape, which had no one inside, but saw a woman on the sidewalk, according to prosecutors.

Witnesses told officers that the woman, later identified as Glenn, was the driver of the Ford Escape and was drunk, according to prosecutors.

An officer approached Glenn to look for injuries, but she bit and resisted the officer, according to prosecutors.

Officers then arrested Glenn in connection with the incident and took her to a nearby hospital, according to prosecutors.

The driver of the Silverado, 69-year-old Christopher Andelean, was also taken to a nearby hospital where he later died, according to prosecutors.

"This charge reflects the actions by the defendant towards officers after the car crash. Our office is committed to a thorough review of all evidence, and additional charges may be authorized after the Warren Police Department finishes their investigation," said Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido.
