Eaton Canyon Vehicle Assault Suspect Out on Bail

An Altadena woman who was arrested on suspicious of assault Friday after allegedly attacking a county employee at Eaton Canyon Nature Center has been released from jail on $30,000 bail.

Arune Kavaliauskaite, 28, allegedly hit the employee with her white convertible Friday after the employee warned her about her dog being off leash.

The employee had become nervous about Kavaliauskaite's reaction to the warning and called for back-up, according to Deputy Johnie Jones of the Los Angeles County Sherifff's Department Parks Bureau.

She then backed the car into the employee, knocking her into another car and almost running over her toes, according to Jones.  The employee was later taken to the hospital, department records indicate

Kavaliauskaite was released on bail, and records show that she has not yet been charged with the assault.  Once suspects make bail it is not unusual for charges to be announced up to several weeks after the arrest.

The Los Angeles Times has located a YouTube video of Kavaliauskaite's music, which Jones confirmed to Patch shows both the dog and the car that were at the Nature Center.  The video can be viewed above.
