A Mesa woman was arrested Thursday on suspicion of biting a police officer on the arm and threatening to kill other officers who were trying to detain her.

Police responded to a noise disturbance call wabout 2:20 a.m. Thursday, and when they arrived at the home in the 10200 block of East Isleta Avenue, they could hear loud music and saw a woman sitting in a car parked in the garage.

The woman, later identified in police reports as Kimberly Jewel Hastriter, 35, identified herself as the homeowner but refused to get out of the car or give her name, police said.

Police pulled the woman from the vehicle because of the noise. Reports said she appeared to be extremely intoxicated and suffering from "severe mood swings."

Police reports state that while being escorted to the police car, Hastriter kicked an officer in the right knee and bit another on the left arm. The bite broke his skin, raised a welt and bled.

The reports also state that Hastriter threatened to kill the officers present at her arrest.

Officers managed to subdue Hastriter, who was booked on charges of aggravated assault on a police officer as well as disturbing the peace and refusing to identify herself to a police officer.
