A Vallejo woman was arrested at her home Friday night in the fatal hit-and-run collision last Oct. 29 of a woman riding an electric scooter in East Oakland.
Kenya Morris, 26, who was charged with vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence, was booked at the Santa Rita jail.
The victim, Michelle Marbley, 54, of Oakland, had been riding an electric scooter northbound on 23rd Avenue on a green light. She was struck by a vehicle speeding westbound on the 2300 block of Foothill Boulevard. The vehicle drove into the opposite lane against a red light before hitting Marbley.
Police said the vehicle immediately left the scene, but came back briefly before fleeing again.
Witnesses who had taken a cell phone video of the hit-and-run crash turned the evidence over to police. Sgt. Tim Dolan determined the license plate number on the car, of which Morris was a registered owner.
Morris was initially arrested a few days after the fatal collision on a probable cause warrant, but was released from custody pending further investigation. Oakland police began looking for her again after she was formally charged with vehicular manslaughter on Dec. 3.
Morris is currently being held without bail at the Santa Rita jail. She is scheduled to be arraigned Monday.
