A student driver has been charged with involuntary manslaughter after police say she jumped a curb and killed an 81-year-old man while he was walking his dog.
Oneyda Boquin was driving without a driver's license in a parking lot on the 2800 block of South Fort Scott Drive in Arlington last month when she allegedly slammed into Marco Amoni, Arlington County police said. The 21-year-old Alexandria woman was held without bail Friday.
According to police, Boquin was learning to drive the car without the guidance of a licensed driving instructor at the time of the Oct. 10 accident.
