Nancy Pelosi's husband Paul charged after alleged hit-and-run crash in California | Serie A English

Paul Pelosi, the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, has been charged following an alleged hit-and-run collision that occurred during the Fourth of July weekend in California’s Napa Valley.

Authorities say the 86-year-old allegedly struck a legally parked vehicle in Yountville before leaving the scene, leading to misdemeanor charges after deputies located him a short distance away.

According to information released by the Napa County Sheriff’s Office and California Highway Patrol, the incident took place on July 3 when Pelosi was driving a brown convertible through Yountville.

The Napa County District Attorney’s Office has officially filed a misdemeanor charge against former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband Paul following a vehicle collision earlier this month.

According to the complaint, Pelosi allegedly hit a parked vehicle on July 3 and left…

Officials said his vehicle collided with an unoccupied parked car, causing significant damage. Although Pelosi briefly stopped after the impact, investigators allege that he drove away moments later.

Witness report led deputies to Pelosi’s vehicle

A witness who observed the crash contacted emergency services and provided a description of the departing vehicle.

Law enforcement officers later found Pelosi approximately a quarter-mile from the crash site. His convertible reportedly showed substantial damage to the front right side.

According to authorities, Pelosi told deputies that he knew he had struck something but did not know exactly what it was or when the damage to his vehicle had occurred, so he continued driving.

Officials confirmed that alcohol was not a factor in the incident, and no injuries were reported.

Pelosi has now been charged with one misdemeanor count of hit-and-run driving along with one infraction for an unlawful turning movement.

The Napa County Sheriff’s Office also referred him to the California Department of Motor Vehicles for an evaluation of his continued driving eligibility, describing it as a standard procedure for elderly drivers.

In a statement provided to the California Post, the Pelosis said, “Mr. Paul Pelosi has personally apologized to the owner of the vehicle and assured them that he would take responsibility for the damage to their vehicle.”

The statement also noted that Nancy Pelosi would not be commenting further on what it described as a private matter.

The latest incident comes four years after Pelosi pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor DUI stemming from a 2022 crash in Napa County.

That collision occurred after Pelosi left a dinner in Oakville and attempted to cross State Route 29, where his Porsche was struck by a Jeep. Authorities at the time reported that his blood alcohol concentration measured 0.082%.

Following his guilty plea, Pelosi received a five-day jail sentence, three years of probation, financial penalties, restitution payments and was ordered to complete a drinking driver education program.

According to the information provided, he ultimately served two days in custody, received credit for two additional days because of good conduct and completed the remaining day through a courthouse work program. His probation also required the installation of an ignition interlock device and payment of approximately $5,000 in victim restitution along with roughly $2,000 in fines.

Later in 2022, Pelosi was seriously injured during a violent break-in at the couple’s San Francisco home when he was attacked with a hammer.

The latest case remains focused on the July 3 collision, with authorities alleging Pelosi left the scene after striking a parked vehicle despite stopping briefly following the impact.
