WATERLOO, Iowa --- A Waterloo woman was arrested Tuesday after she allegedly drove over a curb and intentionally struck a baby in a stroller.

Tiffany Patrice Sykes, 22, of 1622 Heath St., bonded out of jail early Wednesday from the Black Hawk County Jail on charges of going armed with intent, failure to leave information and aid at a personal injury accident, reckless driving and driving while her license was suspended.

Police responded to the incident about 8:15 p.m. Tuesday in the 200 block of Baltimore Street. The initial report was that there had been a traffic accident involving a child in a stroller.

Officers arrived and found that a vehicle had driven over the curb and struck a 1-year-old baby boy in a stroller. Waterloo Fire Rescue took the baby to Covenant Medical Center where he was admitted for observation.

During the investigation, police found that the driver had intentionally driven over the curb several times before striking the baby. The driver had been in a physical altercation with several people before getting into her car and driving at them. After striking the baby, the driver drove away from the scene.

Sykes later turned herself in at the Waterloo Police Department.
