No bail for woman who gives law enforcement false name and is arrested for meth and marijuana

On 11-13-2015 at approximately 8:47 PM, Deputies from the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office conducted a traffic stop on a 2007 Honda Accord for lighting and registration violations in the 76000 block of Henderson Road in Covelo, California.

The Deputies contacted the driver, Monique Peters, who initially provided them with a false name.

When it became clear the name provided was not her real name she was asked to step outside the vehicle.  Peters sped away from the Deputies resulting in a vehicular pursuit.

The vehicle pursuit took a route from Henderson Road onto Mina Road, at one point reaching speeds of approximately 90 miles per hour.

Peters continued to flee until she reached her residence in Hull’s Valley.  Peters fled on foot into her house with Deputies following.

Peters ran through the house and out the back door, tossing away a backpack as she ran.  Peters was subsequently apprehended behind the house.

The backpack was searched and found to contain approximately 1.6 pounds of bud marijuana, two hypodermic syringes loaded with suspected methamphetamine, a glass narcotics smoking pipe and a digital scale.

After being captured, Peters was positively identified by Deputies and determined to have an active Mendocino County misdemeanor arrest warrant for possession of a controlled substance.

Peters was arrested for evading in a vehicle, possession of marijuana for sale, transportation of marijuana for sale, possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia and false identification to a peace officer.

Peters was booked into the Mendocino County Jail where she was to be held on a no bail status.
