<p>Paul Pelosi, the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, is under investigation on suspicion of hit-and-run after allegedly crashing into a parked vehicle in Northern California and driving away.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">The Napa County Sheriff’s Office said Pelosi was involved in a crash that occurred around 2:30 p.m. Friday in Yountville, an incorporated town in the heart of wine country, </span><a href="https://www.kcra.com/article/nancy-pelosi-husband-paul-charge-napa-county-hit-and-run/71823395" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">local outlet KCRA reported.</span></a></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">A witness called 911 to report that a brown convertible traveling north on Yount Street smashed into an unoccupied, legally parked vehicle, according to KCRA. The outlet reported the collision caused severe rear-end damage to the vehicle. The witness also told authorities the suspect “briefly stopped, then drove away.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">Later that afternoon, police found the brown convertible partially blocking Yountville Cross Road, with 86-year-old Paul Pelosi inside. The sheriff’s office said Pelosi’s car had significant front-right damage consistent with the hit-and-run. Pelosi told investigators he knew he crashed into something, but didn’t know what it was, so he kept driving until his car broke down.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">A preliminary alcohol screening found Pelosi’s blood alcohol level was 0.00, the </span><a href="https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/paul-pelosi-investigated-after-hit-and-run-crash-in-yountville/4108917/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">sheriff’s office said</span></a><span style="font-weight:400">, ruling out the influence of alcohol or drugs. Police said Pelosi was not arrested, but deputies will refer the case to the Napa County District Attorney’s Office for possible prosecution.</span></p>
<p>Friday’s episode, on the eve of America’s 250th birthday, is not Pelosi’s first run-in with the law or trouble on the road.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">In June 2022, the Napa County DA’s office </span><span style="font-weight:400">charged Pelosi with a DUI with injury, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nancy-pelosis-husband-finally-charged-with-dui" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire</a> previously reported. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">“Today, the Napa County District Attorney’s Office issued a criminal complaint, filing charges against Paul Pelosi based upon an automobile collision and driving under the influence arrest on May 28th, 2022,” the Napa County DA’s office </span><a href="https://www.countyofnapa.org/DocumentCenter/View/25620/Press-Release---Injury-Charges-Filed-against-Paul-Pelosi-6232022" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">said</span></a><span style="font-weight:400"> at the time. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">“The collision occurred on State Route 29 and Oakville Cross Road at 10:17 pm,” authorities stated. “A blood sample was taken from Mr. Pelosi at 12:32 am and sent to the California Department of Justice for testing. Mr. Pelosi’s blood sample had a .082% blood alcohol content.”</span></p>
<p>Paul Pelosi pled guilty to the DUI charge in 2022, <a href="https://www.napacounty.gov/m/newsflash/Home/Detail/373" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to Napa County News. “Mr. Pelosi pled guilty to the charge of Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol Causing Injury.”</p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">Officials also </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-mugshot-of-nancy-pelosis-husband-is-released-from-his-dui-arrest" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">released</span></a><span style="font-weight:400"> a mugshot relating to that incident. </span><span style="font-weight:400">The Pelosis own an estate in Napa Valley on Zinfandel Lane, which is </span><a href="https://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-richest-nancy-pelosi-vineyard-story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">valued</span></a><span style="font-weight:400"> well north of $5,000,000, and has a vineyard that nets the couple $5,000 to $15,000 in grape sales per year.</span></p>
