ABSECON — An Absecon woman has pleaded guilty to assaulting her romantic partner, then stalking her and running from police when officers tried to arrest her, prosecutors said Monday.

Dariana Gonzalez-Colon, 32, pleaded guilty Oct. 23 before Superior Court Judge Daniel Kurkowski to third-degree aggravated assault against a domestic violence victim, fourth-degree stalking and fourth-degree resisting arrest by flight. The plea agreement calls for a four-year state prison sentence covering her three pending cases, prosecutors said.

According to prosecutors, Absecon police were called to New Jersey Avenue and Station Avenue on Sept. 15, 2025, on a report of a stolen car. A bystander had found the car's owner hurt on the sidewalk. The woman told officers she had let Gonzalez-Colon, her romantic partner, use her car but later asked for it back, and that Gonzalez-Colon became violent, assaulted her and drove off in the car, prosecutors said.

On Oct. 2, 2025, Atlantic City police called to a domestic dispute spoke to the same woman, who said Gonzalez-Colon had kept harassing her on several days and that she feared Gonzalez-Colon would hurt her, prosecutors said.

On Oct. 11, 2025, Absecon officers on patrol found the woman's car parked at a Travelodge motel. Staff told officers it had checked out the day before with Gonzalez-Colon. Officers, who still needed to process Gonzalez-Colon on the Sept. 15 case, found her inside the car. Told she was under arrest, she got out and ran, and officers caught her after a short chase, prosecutors said.

In entering her plea, Gonzalez-Colon admitted causing significant bodily injury to the woman on Sept. 15, 2025, harassing her on several later dates in a way that left her fearing for her safety, and running from police on Oct. 11, 2025.

Sentencing is scheduled for Dec. 8.
