A West Price Hill woman today denied threatening a police officer while getting a traffic ticket Saturday night.
A
Cincinnati police officer pulled over Teresa Walker, 44, at 11:52 p.m.
in the 1000 block of Rutledge. While the officer was writing the
ticket, Walker called the police department to complain that the
officer was taking too long, police said.
She allegedly threatened to shoot the officer if he didn't write the ticket faster, according to Cincinnati police.
She was charged with aggravated menacing and booked into the Hamilton County Justice Center.
Terrence
McNamara, the attorney for Walker, said today in court that Walker
insists her car was pulled over because she is married to a black man
and police were using racial profiling.
Walker, an Arby's
manager, doesn't remember saying she would kill Police Officer Jeff
Bley, the lawyer added, but does remember saying she'll sue him.
Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Lisa Allen set her bond at $10,000. (Cincinnati Enquirer)
