**Update on accident story in Lakewood involving car in two accidents and police pursuit...

A Lakewood woman faces more than a dozen charges after being involved in two vehicle accidents... and leading police on a high speed chase through the village last Thursday night.  Lakewood-Busti Police say they were initially called to the Chautauqua Mall on East Fairmount Avenue shortly after 5 p.m. on a complaint of a car leaving the scene after that vehicle had stuck another car.  Officers say they got a description of the suspect vehicle, and later located it on East Summit Avenue... and, pulled over the driver.  When they approached the car... police say they noticed a strong odor of intoxicants, and, that the woman driver's speech was slurred.  They add that 34 year-old Robin Rivera failed to produce a driver's license before she drove off at a high-rate of speed.  Police pursued... and, Rivera wound up crashing into two parked vehicles and a utility pole on Fairdale Avenue.  Rivera tried to fun off... but, was taken into custody a short time later.  She was taken to UPMC Chautauqua Hospital for treatment of minor injuries.  She's charged with third-degree unlawfully fleeing a police officer... driving while intoxicated... and, 12 other vehicle and traffic violations.  Rivera was issued appearance tickets for Busti Town Court.
