Former Lucchese gangster involved in car crash
A Broward County woman was arrested
Friday after she caused a crash in suburban West Palm Beach that left
her husband with a shattered leg, then punched a Palm Beach County
sheriff’s deputy in the stomach, according to an arrest report.
Elena Accetturo, 29, is facing charges of DUI with property
damage, possession of a controlled substance without a prescription,
battery on an officer and driving with a suspended license. She was
released Tuesday from the Palm Beach County Jail after posting a $12,000
bond.
The crash took place at North Jog Road and 62nd Drive North and
involved a second car. When a deputy asked a paramedic at the scene if
it appeared Accetturo was intoxicated, he answered, “Definitely.”
The deputy found Accetturo “muttering incoherently” and unable
to answer questions, the report said. She declined to submit to a breath
test. Accetturo also didn’t submit to a breath test after she was
arrested for DUI in December, causing her license to be suspended, the
report said.
After she was told at Wellington Regional Medical Center that
she was being arrested, Accetturo allegedly attempted to punch a deputy
in the stomach. Accetturo’s right hand hit the deputy’s body armor hard
plate, causing her “a great deal of pain,” the report said.
Deputies recovered a small plastic bag containing cocaine that
was confiscated by a nurse after Accetturo allegedly brought it into the
hospital with her.
Accetturo’s husband, Anthony, had his leg shattered in several
places and was likely to result in a permanent disfiguring injury, the
report said.
