What happened

Paul Pelosi, 86, husband of Rep. Nancy Pelosi, could face a misdemeanor hit-and-run charge after authorities say he struck a parked car in Yountville on July 3 and left the scene. Napa County deputies responded around 2:30 p.m. to Yount Street after a witness reported a brown convertible hitting a parked vehicle, causing major damage. Pelosi reportedly told deputies he knew he had hit something but was unsure when or what, and Nancy Pelosi’s office said he apologized to the owner and would take responsibility for the damage.
