IRON COUNTY — A woman was arrested Wednesday after hitting a vehicle with a tire iron and attempting to rob two men, police said.

The incident occurred around 9:45 a.m. at Yankee Meadows Reservoir, according to the Iron County Sheriff’s Department. Siobahn Denise Hall, 29, followed two men driving off I-15 who were headed toward Yankee Reservoir, police said. The men were St. George residents who were driving to Yankee Meadows Reservoir to fish.

Hall blocked the exit road with her car and then got out of the vehicle. She began hitting the victims’ car with a tire iron and demanding money, police said. The two victims exited their vehicle and were able to subdue Hall. A passerby saw the incident and drove to the Iron County Sheriff’s Office to alert police.

Officers arrived on scene and arrested Hall. She was booked into the Iron County Jail on suspicion of aggravated robbery, aggravated assault, criminal mischief and unlawful detention.

No one was injured in the incident.
