The woman accused of driving her car past barricades and through the Main Street Festival in Laurel, Maryland, on Saturday will remain behind bars for now.

Kai Deberry-Bostick, 28, is facing several charges after she drove through Main Street Festival despite police officers telling her to stop.

In court documents, police claim Deberry-Bostick drove up to two traffic barrels connected with police tape at an apartment complex and told a Laurel Police Department officer she needed to go and wanted to move the barrels.

On body camera footage, Bostick can be seen taking down the police tape and arguing with the officer who is telling her she cannot leave the parking lot.
