Fox News • • nation
Key Points:
- Paul Pelosi, husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, has been formally charged with misdemeanor hit-and-run and an infraction for unsafe turning following a July 3 incident in Napa County where he allegedly damaged a parked Tesla and left the scene without identifying himself.
- Authorities located Pelosi about half a mile from the scene, where he reportedly said he intended to return, leading to the charges filed by the Napa County District Attorney's Office, which made an unusual public announcement due to significant media interest.
- Pelosi was driving a burgundy Maserati convertible at the time, and this is his second recent high-profile traffic case, having pleaded guilty to misdemeanor DUI in 2022 and faced multiple prior driving infractions across Bay Area counties.
- His next court appearance is scheduled for August 14 in Napa County Superior Court, and the case remains under development.
