A woman who was originally wanted for missing two court dates is now facing additional charges after attempting to evade arrest.

According to the Allegheny County Sheriff's Office, 37-year-old Bailey Loveday was originally facing charges of felony burglary, theft, and trespassing from a case in Jefferson Hills in 2023. Police were able to use DNA evidence to link Loveday to the burglary.

She was initially granted non-monetary bail after she was arraigned on the charges, but missed a preliminary hearing on October 8.

After missing that hearing, a bench warrant for her arrest was issued, and detectives from the sheriff's office were able to locate her at a Sheetz on Route 51. When they attempted to take her into custody, she struggled inside a vehicle that also had several knives inside.
