Woman Accused of Ramming Her Ex-Boyfriend Against a Cinder Block and Killed Him

A woman from Connecticut has been charged with murder after she rammed her car against the father of her baby, crushing him against a cinder-block garage wall, the Associated Press reports.

Cherelle Baldwin, 21, of Bridgeport, Conn. is accused of killing her child's father, 24-year-old Jeffrey Brown, on May 18. The couple had had a fight before the incident took place, but details on what the argument was about were not revealed. Baldwin was arrested Monday after a three-week investigation found no evidence to support her various accounts of what happened.

An accident reconstruction team determined Baldwin's car traveled about 100 feet and accelerated the entire time, before hitting Brown and the wall, police said. There was no indication that Baldwin attempted to brake. Investigators said Baldwin's leg injury was most likely caused by the impact with the wall while her foot was on the accelerator.

Brown was pinned between the car and wall when police and firefighters arrived. Attempts to revive him were unsuccessful, police said. Baldwin suffered a leg injury when the car hit Brown and the wall, police said.

Baldwin was detained on $1 million bail and was expected to be arraigned Tuesday in Bridgeport Superior Court. It's not clear if she has a lawyer.

"Detective Heitor Teixeira interviewed a large number of people to get a clear understanding of what happened, and work by the Crime Scene Unit and accident investigators was key to getting to the truth," Gaudett said in a statement.
