Barnett now faces 10 fel- ony charges — fi rst-degree manslaughter, second-de- gree assault, three counts of third-degree assault, fourth-degree assault, stran- gulation and three counts of failure to perform the duties of a driver. She is also charged with misdemeanor driving under the infl uence of intoxi- cants. She pleaded not guilty to the charges Monday in Cir- cuit Court. The incident took place about 9 p.m. when Seaside Po- lice responded to a disturbance call at a residence. A woman was reportedly being assaulted with two minor children pres- ent at the home. After hearing a highly in- toxicated person involved in the disturbance was driving, police attempted to stop a 1999 Dodge Durango alleged- ly driven by Barnett. The Du- rango, moving at a high rate of speed with the headlights off, then hit the police car before speeding away. Soon after, as the SUV was headed northbound on U.S. Highway 101, the car jumped a sidewalk outside of McDon- ald’s restaurant, struck a con- crete light pole and slammed into a bus stop shelter occupied by two men.

Family displaced after trailer fi re Red Cross assists two after blaze Seaside Signal A fi re to a single-story double-wide trail- er on Friday, Oct. 6, at about 12:30 p.m. in the 33700 block of Highway 26 in Seaside displaced two adults. It appeared the fi re started a day or two before in a void space between two sec- tions of roof next to the chimney of a wood stove after the occupants had used the wood stove, Seaside Fire Division Chief Dave Rankin said Saturday. “It appeared the fi re had been smolder- ing for some time before burning though the roof,” Rankin said. “A neighbor saw the smoke, evacuated the two residents, and had his wife dial 911 while he got up on the roof and started trying to put the fi re out with a garden hose.” Seaside sent two engines and Gearhart stood by Seaside’s fi re station to cover the city. “We had to do some extensive over- haul and cut a large section of the top roof to reach the void space and extinguish the smoldering areas of fi re which had spread along the top of the lower roof,” Rankin said. There was also some extensive water damage from the garden hose inside the living room and kitchen and minor smoke damage to the rest of the structure. The scene was cleared around noon Fri- day. The Red Cross responded to help ad- dress the immediate basic needs of those affected such as temporary housing, food, clothing, comfort kits with toiletry items, information about recovery services, and health and mental health services.
