The husband of former House speaker Nancy Pelosi was involved in a hit-and-run car crash in California that left a parked vehicle with \u201cmajor\u201d damage, authorities said on Saturday \u2013 and he could face misdemeanor charges.<\/p>\n
Paul Pelosi was driving his brown convertible on Friday in Yountville, a town in the heart of wine country, when he struck a legally parked car on the side of the road, briefly stopped and then drove away, the Napa county sheriff\u2019s office said in a statement. No injuries were reported.<\/p>\n
A witness saw the collision and called 911. Shortly afterward, sheriff\u2019s deputies found Pelosi with damage to the front of his car on a road roughly a quarter of a mile away. He reportedly told officers he knew he hit something but was not sure when or what caused the damage.<\/p>\n
Pelosi, 86, did not have any alcohol in his system, according to the statement. The sheriff\u2019s office referred him to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) for a process to determine whether he may continue to drive \u2013 something that officials say is common for older drivers.<\/p>\n
Pelosi was not arrested \u2013 and because no one was injured, the sheriff\u2019s office recommended a misdemeanor charge for fleeing the scene of an accident.<\/p>\n
A staffer for Nancy Pelosi, who did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.<\/p>\n
The California Post reported<\/a> a statement from a spokesperson for the Pelosis who said Paul had \u201cpersonally apologized to the owner of the vehicle and assured them that he would take responsibility for the damage to their vehicle\u201d.<\/p>\n Nancy Pelosi, meanwhile, \u201cwill not be commenting further on this private matter\u201d, the spokesperson was quoted as saying.<\/p>\n The congresswoman <\/strong>is in her 20th term representing San Francisco in the US House. She has announced that she is retiring in early 2027.<\/p>\n Saturday\u2019s crash happened after Paul Pelosi pleaded guilty in 2022 to misdemeanor charges of driving under the influence in Napa county. He was sentenced to five days in jail and three years of probation.<\/p>\n However, he served only two days in jail and received good conduct credit for two other days, leaving just one day to serve in a courthouse work program.<\/p>\n Pelosi as part of his probation also was required to attend a three-month drinking driver class and install an ignition interlock device, which forces drivers to provide a breath sample to prove sobriety before the engine will start. He was furthermore ordered to pay about $5,000 in victim restitution for medical bills and lost wages, along with nearly $2,000 in fines.<\/p>\n That same year, an intruder attacked him and severely beat with a hammer at his and Nancy Pelosi\u2019s San Francisco home. The attacker, David DePape, was subsequently sentenced to life imprisonment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The husband of former House speaker Nancy Pelosi was involved in a hit-and-run car crash in California that left a parked vehicle with \u201cmajor\u201d damage, authorities said on Saturday \u2013 and he could face misdemeanor charges.
