A Venezuelan immigrant who worked as a driver for Amazon is accused of nearly killing a woman walking with her baby in a hit-and-run accident in Miami, Florida.
Salahi Parra Ovalles, a 45-year-old from Venezuela, was working as a driver for Amazon in the Aventura Isles Estates neighborhood of Miami on August 22 when he struck a woman and her dog who were walking her 4-month-old son in a stroller.
The incident, captured on security camera, showed the woman being thrown to the ground, her stroller overturning and her son falling into the street.
After fleeing in his vehicle, Parra-Ovalles is seen walking over to the victim, placing the baby back in the stroller and righting it, before leaving the woman on the ground with a bloody skull.
The woman suffered brain damage, cerebral hemorrhage and a fractured skull as a result of the hit-and-run accident, but the boy was uninjured.
Parra-Ovalles, a former Amazon driver, was arrested the following day by Miami-Dade County police. Charged Parra-Ovalles was charged with two counts of leaving the scene of an accident and causing bodily injury. Her bail was set at just $7,500. She was later released on bail.
Lawyer representing woman seriously injured in hit-and-run accident said of New York Post He said he couldn't believe Parra-Ovalles was granted bail given the brutality of the incident.
“She was run over and presumably killed in broad daylight and within 24 hours of being arrested. [the suspect is] “They could be back on the streets, driving a car again. Where is the justice system when we need it?” the lawyer said.
Para Ovalles post According to reports, Palau Balles arrived in the United States on a B-2 tourist visa in 2019. Palau Balles' tourist visa expired in 2021 but she was unable to leave the United States. That same year, she was granted Temporary Protected Status (TPS) as a Venezuelan national, allowing her to avoid deportation and obtain a work permit.
