Woman Arrested After Attempting to Hit Worker with Vehicle in Glynn County

On Tuesday, March 11, Glynn County Police officers arrested Katherine A. Adams in connection with a hit-and-run and aggravated assault incident that occurred on Satilla Drive.

The arrest followed an incident involving a Live Oak fiber technician who was working near 239 Satilla Drive. According to the technician, Adams approached him aggressively and claimed he did not belong in the area. Moments later, she attempted to strike him with her vehicle. The technician, who was wearing a high-visibility safety vest, managed to move out of the way in time to avoid being hit.

As the technician attempted to leave the area, Adams followed him in her vehicle and struck the tow-behind air compressor attached to his work vehicle. She then backed into a driveway, colliding with a parked vehicle before fleeing the scene.

Officers identified Adams and located her at her residence on Satilla Drive, where she was taken into custody without incident. Adams was transported to the Glynn County Detention Center and charged with Hit & Run and Aggravated Assault.

No injuries were reported. The investigation is ongoing, and anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Glynn County Police Department Non-Emergency line at (912) 554-3645 or provide tips anonymously via Silent Witness at (912) 264-1333.
