Wednesday, March 25, 2009
The sun sentinel.com is reporting that, A West Palm Beach driver could face charges in a spree of hit-and-run crashes on Interstate 95 in Broward County that injured a Davie woman, the Florida Highway Patrol said Tuesday.
Michele M. Fevola, 33, was involved in four crashes on I-95 that began at about 8 p.m. Monday in Deerfield Beach and ended minutes later in Fort Lauderdale, said FHP spokesman Sgt. Mark Wysocky. Troopers are awaiting toxicology results to determine whether Fevola was driving drunk, Wysocky said. The woman hurt in one of the crashes, Marisol Montellano, 21, was taken to Broward General Medical Center in Fort Lauderdale, where she was in good condition Tuesday, hospital spokeswoman Candice Ogden said. Fevola's 2002 Chevrolet pickup rear-ended a 2008 Lexus, then struck a 1994 Toyota before hitting Montellano's 2004 Isuzu SUV near Sunrise Boulevard, FHP said. Fevola lost control of her pickup, veered left and was struck by a 2009 Toyota, Wysocky said. Fevola was taken to Broward General, where she was treated and released, Ogden said. The drivers of the other vehicles were unhurt.
Fevola has had several run-ins with the law, state records show. She was convicted of driving under the influence in Broward in July 2001, Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles records show. Another DUI case the same year resulted in her license being revoked for five years.Her license was suspended this year for failing to pay a traffic citation, but it was reinstated last month, records show.
