A woman from Chowchilla has been arrested and booked on Monday, September 28 after a conflict with police officers in town.
27-year-old Amanda White, who lives in central Chowchilla near the Merle L. Fuller Elementary School, was arrested for resisting or obstructing police, and battery on an officer. According to the official media report from the Madera County Department of Corrections, the unemployed woman was booked on those two charges, both misdemeanors, at 11:12 that morning.
