On October 28, just before 5:00 p.m., a harrowing incident unfolded in Larkfield, California, as Maria Carmona, 43, of Susanville, was seen throwing wine bottles at moving vehicles. This event resulted in injuries to a child and has since led to Carmona's arrest, according to the Sonoma Sheriff.

Law enforcement investigations revealed Carmona had stolen the wine bottles from a local business and was under the influence at the time of the incident, which explained her irrational demeanor.

Carmona has been charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon, throwing an object at a vehicle, child cruelty, and misdemeanor theft. She is currently on $63,500 bail, tied also to multiple out-of-county warrants, as detailed in the report.

Upon the scene clearing, the Sonoma County Fire District personnel provided immediate medical treatment to the injured child, who is now in stable condition.
