Lawyer For Woman Charged In Dracut Hit-And-Run Says Victim May Be Partially To Blame

DRACUT (CBS) -- The lawyer for a Tynsgboro woman charged in a weekend hit-and-run crash said Monday in court that the victim may be partially to blame.

Police said 46-year-old Christina Digloria hit a 61-year-old man while driving on Lakeview Avenue in Dracut Saturday evening. She allegedly kept driving until she crashed into a parked car.

She's been charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and leaving the scene of a crash causing serious bodily injury, and possession of an open alcohol container.

At Digloria's arraignment, her lawyer said the Digloria didn't see a crosswalk and the victim may have tried to cross the road in the dark in an unmarked area.

The victim is now in serious condition at the hospital.
