Kuna woman makes court appearance

The Kuna woman accused of ramming a police car during a pursuit that killed a Nampa Police K-9 made her initial court appearance in Canyon County on Monday.

Police say Stephanie Ann Kettermann and Tanner Howe eluded officers who attempted a traffic stop Saturday night in Nampa…which ended in a crash, injuring Nampa Police Officer Cody Huss…and his K-9 partner Riddick did not survive the crash.

Ketermann appeared virtually for her initial court appearance and is now being held on $1 million bond with a preliminary hearing scheduled for October 1.

KIVI-TV reports, she is charged with several felonies for battery on law enforcement, eluding, trafficking meth, and possession of a Schedule 2 controlled substance.

She’s also charged with four misdemeanors related to drugs.

After a search of the area Saturday night, police also took Tanner Howe into custody, and he is currently in custody on a parole violation, with new charges pending.
