Police sources tell TMZ that a woman obsessed with Sandra Bullock almost killed Sandra's husband, motorcycle mogul Jesse James, during a frightening attack at the couple's Orange County home late Sunday night.
Cops say that Bullock, along with James' 10-year-old child, looked on in horror as Marcia Valentine "attempted 3 or 4 times to run Jesse James over with her silver Mercedes." Jesse was never struck by the car during the alleged incident.
We're told Valentine also "laid in the driveway and wouldn't move."
Orange County Sheriffs were contacted and responded to the scene, but Valentine allegedly fled before they arrived. After an intense manhunt, officers located Valentine early Monday morning and took her into custody.
Valentine is being held on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
UPDATE: In an exclusive statement to TMZ, the couple's rep, Cheryl Maisel, said, "The incident did occur. Both Jesse James and Sandra Bullock are fine and it is now in the hands of the authorities."

It is amazing that all of you believe Jessie and Sandra's version blindly, it is also strange that Sandra had at the time of the so called attack, had signed a contract to film a movie, all about a crazed stalker that does almost what she accuses the woman of doing, never mind that the woman in question lived in the same condoâs, and had owner her condo for many years before Bullock and James bought theirsâ¦., strange that anyone here never asked âwhy would a person do this?â You all just blindly go to the fact that if a movie star says that it happened, then it happened, never mind that James had a criminal record... because he is married to Bullock, he must be a good guyâ¦.. I feel that the woman was just a strange pawn in Bullock and James plan to get free insight into how the courts would handle a stalking case, for Bullocks next movie (all about Steve (2008)) in the end, the world will know the truth, but then again, no one will report on it, because it will show sweet little Sandra. Is not so sweet after allâ¦..
Lets see how long this post lasts..... for those of you who missed the drama due to TMZ one sidedness. Allegedly Sandra James, along with her two sidekick cheerleaders, tormented a girl back in highschool . She allegedly threw an apple out of a car window and clocked this girl in the head as she was walking home from school, and then laughed and laughed and laughed about it. According to this girl she was nothing but nice to Sandra James and even offered a shoulder for her to cry on when Sandra Jameses boyfriend Grey Davis cheated on her with some girl named Nancy. According to apple as we so fondly call her now, Sandra was nice to apple when her friends weren't around but as soon as her friends were around Sandra allegedly turned into this mean person who tormented her. These are just allegations people. Something tells me there is some truth to it or TMZ wouldn't keep pulling apples posts. I suspect allegedly that Sandra James is putting pressure on TMZ to keep this from being told publicly. Who knows. Glad Jesse James is allright. Even though he is a car thief.
LOCK HER UP AND HOLD ON TO THE KEYS. SHE NEEDS MENTAL CARE.... AND MUST BE ON MEDICATION OTHERWISE SHE WILL KILL SOMEONE ELSE AND WHO KNOWS WILL GO AGAIN AFTER SANDRA BULLOCK HUSBAND AND WHO KNOWS WILL GO AFTER SANDRA.... HOLD HER IN JAIL FOR CARE.
It's crazies like this that tarnish the credibility of true fans. We love you Sandra...please know that we are not all crazy. God Bless you and your family.
I live down the street from Sandra. I can't believe I missed this.
Wow sounds like this was in the driveway of their house? Crazy...
Another wack job. I'm tired of these insane losers on the streets who get away with nothing more than a visit by aloon doctor and released. A shot through the wind shield with a 45 magnum would have ended this situation.
Sandra Bullock seems like a respectful celebrity, she keeps her name out of the Tabs, and Jesse James builds the coolest bikes, and doesn't bother anybody, this is a shame, but there seems to an obsessed stalker around every corner.
I've noticed quite a few posters on TMZ who are obsessed with Larry Birkhead and his baby and I can see them doing something like this. I hope he has good security when he comes back to California.
Iagree with #4. Sandra Bullock has classs and dignity unlike others I will notmention. She leads a quiet life. This nut stalker needs to be put away. What is this stalker going to do when she gets out of jail in a day or two? Go IN Sandra's house!! David Letterman used to have a stalker who would routinely break inot his Conn. house. The stalker wa salready through the gate and at the front door.
Put crazy people, stalkers away for some real long time in a nutcase, insane aslyum . That is where they belong. Suppose this crazy stalker had a gun. She was so there and so close she could have shot Snadra.
