Woman Gives Cops the Finger..Family Says Take Her She's Your's

Joynee Carter, 19, of Stafford, Va., got into trouble June 6 for showing police officers "an obscene finger gesture."

Officers say Carter ignored a detour through a parking lot they had set up around a vehicle accident they were investigating. She allegedly nearly struck one of the deputies with her silver Honda. When officers called to the woman, she allegedly gave them the finger.

Officers followed her for 8 miles as Carter refused to stop. During the pursuit she ran a stoplight, and when she did pull over -- in her own driveway -- she locked her doors and windows and sounded her car horn.

A family member gave police a key to Carter's car, and they arrested her for felony eluding, obstruction of justice, reckless driving, and running a red light.
