ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — (Associated Press) - A woman is facing charges after authorities said she tried to run over a man stemming from a dispute over an Albuquerque casino parking spot.

KOB-TV in Albuquerque reported that Yvonne Aragon was arrested Friday outside the Route 66 Casino after the fight.

According to the Bernalillo County sheriff's office, the 45-year-old Aragon got angry the man was standing in a parking space to save it for his wife. Bernalillo County Sheriff's Capt. Andi Taylor said that's when Aragon hit the man with her car.

Taylor said the man's bruises on his leg matched a skeleton license plate of Aragon's car. The man told deputies she also pointed a gun at him.

It was not known if Aragon had an attorney.
