The driver of a Jeep Wrangler involved in confrontation at a Carson City gas station in November in which the female suspect intentionally rammed the occupied victim’s vehicle and then left the scene is now in jail facing a felony battery with a deadly weapon charge.
Traci Lynn Morrison, 33, of Reno, was booked into jail on Tuesday after deputies obtained a warrant, said Carson City Sheriff’s Office Detective Sam Hatley.
On Nov. 14, 2016 at approximately 7 a.m. Morrison allegedly got into a verbal confrontation with a group of males at the gas pumps at the 7-11 at 3701 North Carson Street in Carson City. She then allegedly drove the Jeep Wrangler into the occupied victim’s vehicle.

She was arrested at the Reno Justice Court while there on an unrelated matter. She was booked into the Washoe County Detention Facility for the warrant.
