A West Babylon woman is accused of running over her husband with her car and then fleeing the scene before being arrested in another state Wednesday.
Police say Maureen Hines, 45 was backing out of a parking space at her apartment complex when her husband, Dennis Durnin, approached the driver?s side of the vehicle. She continued to back out, police say, knocking Durnin to the ground. He later died at Good Samaritan Hospital.
According to police, Hines fled before police and an ambulance responded. After an extensive search, she was arrested hours later by police in New Jersey for DWI.
Police are asking any witnesses or anyone who had contact with Hines to call them at 631-854-8152 or to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-220-TIPS.
