ONAWA, Iowa (AP) — A Sergeant Bluff woman has been charged with drunken and reckless driving after police say she hit a man with her SUV outside a bar in Onawa. As we told you Saturday morning on KJAN and on kjan.com,  44-year-old Kimberly Heberer was arrested early Saturday morning after police say climbed she from the back seat of a parked SUV into the driver’s seat, and backed up the vehicle, which ran into 25-year-old Manuel Anton, of Blencoe. The incident took place during a verbal altercation in an alley behind a local bar. 

Anton, who was standing behind the SUV when he was hit,  was taken to a local hospital before being transferred to a hospital in Sioux City. Police say the investigation is continuing and that additional charges may be filed. Officials with the Monona County jail say Heberer has been released from custody.
