Another rule of life: If you are stupid enough to cheat on your wife, don't call her to pick you up at your girlfriend's apartment.
Sacramento police spent a lot of time on Tuesday sorting out a mess that apparently stemmed from just that.
Here's how a crime summary explains the events:
Just after midnight, officer responded to the area of Bicentennial Circle to a report of a woman waving a knife and stabbing car tires before fleeing in a vehicle.
A short time later, another caller reported a hit-and-run incident on Power Inn Road and indicated the knife-waving suspect was involved.
During what officers described as a "lengthy investigation," they were able to figure out that the "suspect had found that her husband was having an affair with a female from the apartments on Bicentennial Cir(cle). He had allegedly called her to come pick him up."
At the apartments, the wife allegedly confronted the girlfriend and two other women. At that point, the wife also allegedly brandished the knife.
The friends of the girlfriend allegedly followed the wife and her husband, ramming her vehicle as "the vehicles raced down Folsom Boulevard" near the intersection with Power Inn Road.
The wife's vehicle spun out of control and hit a third vehicle. Apparently no one was injured.
However, the girlfriend with more "friends" came to the crash scene and the argument started again.
Eventually, the wife was arrested on suspicion of brandishing a weapon. Officers are looking for the driver who rammed her vehicle.
