BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2025 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A Boca Raton woman is facing multiple charges after she allegedly injured someone in a crash, but fled the scene before police showed up.

While the arrest report continues to be processed by the Palm Beach County Clerk of Courts, citations obtained by BocaNewsNow.com show that Jamie Hower of the 1000 block of West Camino Real was driving a 2011 white Dodge two door car when she allegedly caused the crash at 399 SW 2nd Street around 1 a.m. on Monday.

When police found her, she allegedly refused to comply with multiple requests from police, ranging from a DUI test to accepting a citation. She was ultimately arrested and charged with “Refusal to submit to DUI testing, “DUI damage to property or person,” “Hit and run, leave scene of crash involving damage to property,” and “Resist officer, refuse to accept, sign citation or post bond.”
