Paul Pelosi, husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, is facing a hit-and-run charge after allegedly hitting a parked car with his convertible and driving away in Napa County. An eyewitness reported the incident, and the Napa County Sheriff’s department found Pelosi’s car blocking a road nearby. Pelosi, 86, claimed he didn’t know what he hit and continued driving until his car became disabled. No alcohol was detected in his system, and he was not arrested. The case will be referred to the Napa District Attorney’s Office, and a DMV re-evaluation form will be submitted due to his age. Neither Paul nor Nancy Pelosi has commented on the incident. Previously, Paul Pelosi was attacked in his home in 2022, resulting in serious injuries, and the attacker was sentenced to life in prison.
