Evanna Howell is being suspended indefinitely from NASCAR.
The 35-year-old NASCAR team member and senior account manager for 23XI Racing was indefinitely suspended from the racing organization following an apparent incident over the weekend before the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
Evanna Howell was reportedly arrested over the weekend
A document released by NASCAR on Wednesday (May 27) said she was suspended indefinitely for a “behavioral” reason.
According to Charlotte’s local news WBTV, Cabarrus County court records claim she was arrested on Saturday (May 23), and the arrest warrant alleged that she used a golf cart to assault a 77-year-old man. She was charged with assault with a deadly weapon causing serious injury, and that he sustained a “severe laceration.”
It is not yet clear what led to the crash. The outlet also obtained her mugshot.
She was reportedly released on bail from the Cabarrus County jail on Tuesday (May 26) after posting a $125,000 bond. Her next court appearance is for June 16, via Yahoo.
Evanna Howell received the NASCAR Partner Award during the 2024 NASCAR Drive for Diversity Awards back in 2024.
23XI Racing is owned and operated by Michael Jordan, along with Denny Hamlin. As of right now, there has been no public statement from the team regarding the suspension.
