Police charge, search for driver of wild wreck in Shamokin Dam

A week after a wild crash in central Pennsylvania, the driver faces a slew of charges, but police can't track her down.

SHAMOKIN DAM, Pa. — Charges have been announced in the wild crash that ended with a car on top of a restaurant in Snyder County and police are now searching for the driver.

Shamokin Dam police announced those charges against Theresa Risso Thursday night.

Officers say the 42-year-old's blood alcohol was four times the legal limit when her car hit four vehicles, a utility pole, and a concrete barrier before catapulting onto the roof of Golden Chopsticks in Shamokin Dam last Friday.

Her one-year-old daughter was in the car; she is okay.

When officers went to arrest her on Thursday, she was nowhere to be found.

Risso faces several charges, including putting her child in danger and driving under the influence. 

She was released from the hospital earlier this week.

Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to contact Shamokin Dam police at (570) 743-2671.
