A 41-year-old man was arrested in a hit-and-run incident that has left a 9-year-old girl in a coma. Saturday night, Nacirema Brown had run into Rockaway Avenue when a tan Nissan Maxima hit her. Witnesses told the girl's mother the driver got out of the car to yell, "You stupid little bitch!" before driving away. Police, who found the car on Park Place near Eastern Parkway, charged the suspect with leaving the scene of an accident.
