A Jackson woman is arrested and charged in the fatal hit and run of a Lakewood man back in December of last year, according to the Ocean County Prosecutors Office.

Investigators say Sandra Denise Brown, 46, hit Roger Conover, 45, along Cedar Bridge Avenue near Martin Luther King Drive and then took off Christmas Day 2017 before Lakewood Police were dispatched around 7:42 pm.

Her 1997 Nissan Maxima was found a short time later on John Street with damage to the front driver side windshield area along with physical evidence indicating a pedestrian was recently hit, investigators state.

Ocean County Prosecutors asked her to turn herself in, but she didn't want to follow that request.

Brown was arrested in Seaside Heights around 6:30 am on June 11, 2018 by members of the Ocean County Sheriff's Department's Warrants Unit and the United States Marshal Service

She is charged with leaving the scene of a motor vehicle crash resulting in death and is currently lodged in the Ocean County Jail.

Conover was treated on scene for severe head injuries on the night of the accident and was transported to Monmouth Medical Southern Campus in Lakewood where he was later pronounced deceased.

OCPO Major Crimes Fatal Accident Investigations and the Ocean County Sheriff's Department CSI immediately responded to the scene to assist.
