RICHMOND — A 24-year-old woman from South Burlington was arrested on multiple charges following an incident in Richmond yesterday.
Authorities say they were notified of a vehicle in the median of exit 11 on I-89 at around 6:15 p.m.

She was taken into custody and transported to the Williston Barracks for processing.
She is facing charges of aggravated assault, assault on a protected professional (x2), assault on a protected professional with bodily fluids, resisting arrest, negligent operation, false information to a police officer, DUI #2 criminal refusal.
