(KNZA)--A Jackson County jury has found a Mayetta woman guilty on multiple charges stemming from an incident last summer.
According to court records, 37-year-old Chellcie Sparks was convicted on seven counts, including aggravated battery, aggravated assault, criminal restraint, criminal damage to property, interference with law enforcement, possession of methamphetamine, and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was acquitted on two additional counts.  
The verdict came after a two-day trial last week. Sentencing has been scheduled for March 27th.  
Prosecutors say Sparks intentionally struck a man riding a motorcycle with her pickup truck on June 30th, causing injuries. They also allege she fired multiple gunshots while threatening several people earlier that same morning.  
A pre-sentence investigation has been ordered. Sparks will remain in the Jackson County Jail until further order of the court. 
Meanwhile, a hearing in a separate misdemeanor case against Sparks—charging her with six counts of violating a protection order—is set for March 2nd.
