A woman has been arrested in connection to a hit-and-run accident that killed federal judge Sandra Feuerstein and injured a 6-year-old in Boca Raton, Florida, on Friday.
Nastasia Andranie Snape was arrested Saturday and faces charges of vehicular homicide, leaving the scene of a crash involving death and leaving the scene of a crash with injury, according to jail booking records from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office. CNN has been unable to determine if Snape is represented by an attorney who would comment on her behalf. Feuerstein was a judge for the US District Court in the Eastern District of New York. In a statement, Mark Lesko, acting US attorney of the Eastern District of New York, said the office extended its condolences to the court community and Feuerstein’s family. “As we mourn her tragic death, we also remember Judge Feuerstein’s unwavering commitment to justice and service to the people of our district and our nation,” Lesko said. According to a probable cause affidavit from the Boca Raton Police Department, officers responded to a fatal hit and run crash involving two pedestrians on North Ocean Boulevard in Boca Raton on Friday, April 9, at about 10:22 a.m. ET. A red, two-door sedan traveling northbound had approached the intersection at North Ocean Boulevard and Northwest 40th Street, the affidavit says.
