A Newton woman arrested for assaulting police officers during a January arrest has filed not guilty pleas to the charges levied against her in District Court for Carroll County. Court records show 25-year-old Alicia E. Ngubane submitted her written pleas last week to two counts of assault on a peace officer, a serious misdemeanor. She was arrested during the early morning hours of Jan. 17 following a dispute at Ossy’s Show Club in the 1200 block of Plaza Drive. Ngubane was told to leave the premises by law enforcement, but she refused and was taken into custody for trespassing. Authorities say she kicked one officer in the chest while being placed in a patrol vehicle and spit in another officer’s face while being booked into the Carroll County jail. Her trial is set to begin April 27 with a pretrial conference on March 25.
