Paul Pelosi, the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, is facing a possible misdemeanor hit-and-run charge after authorities say he struck a legally parked vehicle in California’s Napa Valley and drove away before being stopped by deputies.
According to the Napa County Sheriff’s Office, the incident occurred Friday afternoon in the town of Yountville in the Napa Valley area, when the 86-year-old Pelosi allegedly hit an unoccupied parked vehicle while driving his brown Maserati convertible. Witnesses told investigators Pelosi briefly stopped after the collision before continuing to drive approximately a quarter-mile until his vehicle became disabled.
