Cerritos Resident Involved In Hit-And-Run Incident

By Brian Hews

Rowshaid Pellum, 24, a resident of Cerritos, is alleged to be driving a car that ran over a waitress yesterday in Anaheim.

Pellum and three Long Beach women, Markeisha Williams, 18, Shyteice Miles, 19, and Santeea Ralph, 23 left Mexico Lindo restaurant in Anaheim without paying their bill.

The 28-year-old waitress ran out to the parking lot to confront them and was run over by Pellum’s black Volkswagen Jetta. The car ran over the waitress’ legs but they were not broken. She was subsequently transported to UCI medical Center.

Lt. Lloyd Downing told HMG CN that it wasn’t a good idea for her to go out and confront them, they were not there to dine and dash, they just wanted her out of the way.

The car was spotted this morning in the parking lot of the Motel 6 just off of Katella Ave., Lt. Jeffrey Hallock told HMG-CN.

The suspects were staying at the motel, the police investigated the area and car, and determined the four were involved in the incident.

All four were booked on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, conspiracy and defrauding an innkeeper (dine and dash), and each was held on $25,000 bail.
