Woman who drove SUV into playground held without bail after 4-year-old dies
[NYPOST] A Florida woman who was released on a $120 bond after plowing an SUV into a playground and killing a 4-year-old girl is now being held without bail, according to reports.Kiara Morant, 18, was initially released on the paltry bond after being charged with driving without a license when her Jeep Cherokee barreled into a daycare center playground Wednesday. After Morant was sprung, one of the children she allegedly struck died — prompting cops to upgrade charges to felony counts of driving without a license resulting in serious injury or death, WWSB-TV reported. She surrendered to Fort Myers police, who had issued a warrant for her arrest. Police said the incident happened around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday in Arcadia when Morant allegedly lost control of the SUV and drove through a chain-link fence at the daycare. The 4-year-old, identified as Maleena Valdez, later died from her injuries, while a 5-year-old girl remains at death's door. Posted by: Fred 2022-03-21 |
