North Augusta Woman in Custody in Connection with Deadly Hit-and-Run in Florida
The Miramar Police Department said today they have a North Augusta woman in custody in connection with a deadly hit-and-run there last week.
Florida authorities had been searching for 28-year-old Janae Lewis in connection with the November 27 incident that claimed the life of 35-year-old Silvio Martinez.
Police said they had the car involved in the deadly wreck, which was registered to Lewis, but she was nowhere to be found. North Augusta Public Safety says surveillance video showed her pulling into an apartment complex in North Augusta. There was damage to the right bumper, blood on the roof and driver-side window, as well as a cracked windshield.
Miramar authorities say Lewis was booked into the Broward County Jail Monday and has been charged with Leaving the Scene of an Accident Resulting in Death.
