Police Arrest Woman for Evading An Accident Scene

A 31-year-old Bridgeport woman was arrested for evading the scene of an accident Jan. 4, when police say she struck the side of an '03 Toyota with her '98 Chevy Convertible as it turned into a driveway in the 400-block of Elm Street at around 12:26 p.m., stopped, then took off.

Police said she turned herself in four hours later after learning police were looking for her and was charged with evading responsibility, passing in a no passing zone and operating a motor vehicle without a license. She was released on $500 bond for a Jan. 14 court date.
