It has been reported that Marcia Diane Valentine, 45, tried to run the "Monster Garage" host over in his own driveway when he asked her to leave the property. Orange County sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino reportedly said, "At around 14:40 a.m. James found the suspect, Marcia Valentine, lying in their driveway. He told her to leave, but instead she got into her 2004 silver Mercedes and tried to run him over three to four times…Valentine tried to kill him." Bullock, and James’ 10-year old son, Jesse Jr., reportedly witnessed the attack. No one was injured. Cheryl Maisel confirmed the incident saying, "Both Jesse James and Sandra Bullock are fine and it is now in the hands of the authorities."
Valentine then fled the scene and James called the police and gave a detailed description of her. This is not the first time that she has shown up at their house. Numerous times James and Bullock have found Valentine lying in front of their garage door. Valentine was arrested on charges of assault with a deadly weapon on Monday morning after police spotted her car. She was pulled over and James was called to do an "in-field lineup" where he positively identified her. Valentine was then taken to and booked at the Orange County Woman’s jail.
Valentine reportedly has no previous police records and there are currently no restraining orders against her. She lives in Huntington Beach, which is close by James and Bullock’s home in Seal Beach, California. Amormino said of the incident, "I’m not sure if she was looking for a confrontation, wanted to contact the actress, [or] exactly what it was. Valentine posted $25,000 bail on Thursday and is due back in court on May 22. No doubt that James and Bullock’s next step will be to file a restraining order against her.
