Around 4 pm Monday, 23-year-old Courtney Linder was taken into custody after a crash near Minnewawa and 9th Street in Old Town Clovis.
Investigators later determined that Linder got into an argument with her neighbors, pepper sprayed them, and hopped in her car.
Instead of driving away, police say she made a U-turn and hit the woman, who suffered major injuries.
Authorities later found Linder not far from the collision and arrested her.
Linder is now facing attempted murder charges.
