Man charged in woman's hit-and-run death

NEW YORK (AP) -- A man was arrested on a manslaughter charge for reportedly leaving the scene of a fatal accident in which a teenage mother was struck by three hit-and-run drivers.
Raymundo Herrera, 32, of Long Beach, also was charged with reckless endangerment and criminally negligent homicide in the Jan. 18 death of Natalie Guzman, authorities said.
Herrera drove the third vehicle to strike Guzman, 18, who by then was lying in the street surrounded by people who came to her aid, authorities said. The other two drivers are still being sought.
Herrera was arraigned Wednesday night in Queens Criminal Court, where a judge set bail at $25,000. A spokesman for the district attorney did not know if the bail was posted.
Herrera could face up to 15 years in prison if convicted, prosecutors said.
Investigators were able to track a license plate number to a gray sport utility vehicle belonging to Herrera's brother, police said.
Police were then able to collect DNA evidence from the vehicle, a spokesman said.
Herrera was represented by the Legal Aid Society, which did not immediately return a message left at its office.
