Police Say Honda Hit 100 MPH During Fulton County Pursuit

Dangerous and Reckless

A 34-year-old woman is behind bars after what police describe as a dangerous and reckless attempt to flee officers on Monday afternoon in Fulton County.

According to a report from Fulton Area News, Gloversville Police Department officers initially stopped Ariel S. Mauleon around 4:30 p.m. on Bleecker Street in Gloversville. But instead of complying, police say Mauleon took off in a gray four-door Honda, sparking a multi-agency pursuit.

Fled the Scene Exceeding 100 MPH

Early reports from patrol units indicated she may have struck either a police officer or a patrol vehicle as she fled the scene. From there, authorities say Mauleon sped through parts of Pleasant Square and Mayfield before heading toward Northville.

Speeds reportedly exceeded 100 miles per hour at times during the chase.

The pursuit finally came to an end around 5 p.m. in the vicinity of 5th Street in Northville, where Mauleon was taken into custody. Thankfully, no injuries were reported.
