Arrest Made Following Fatal Hit and Run Crash in Brighton

Investigators say the deadly hit-and-run last week in Brighton was an intentional act, by a woman who apparently wanted revenge for a robbery.

Twenty-four-year-old Angelina Griffin is charged with intentional murder in the death of 34-year-old Omar Coker, near Highland and Council Rock avenues.

According to prosecutor Ray Benitez, witnesses saw Griffin run Coker down.

The car was found minutes later in the city of Rochester.

Griffin was paroled last spring after serving time for an attempted robbery in New York City. Police say she is a three-time convicted felon.
