Woman admits to drunk driving in connection with hitting pedestrians
BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — A Buffalo woman who was arrested last month pleaded guilty Wednesday to leaving the scene of an incident while drunk driving, according to the Erie County District Attorney’s Office.
Maggie A. Coyle, 49, was driving intoxicated on Cazenovia Street the night before Saint Patrick’s Day when she hit two pedestrians while turning onto Cumberland Ave. Coyle drove away without notifying police.
A 23-year-old male victim was transported to ECMC for a head injury and was released. The second female victim was treated at the scene for minor injuries.
Buffalo Police located Coyle shortly after the incident. She was ordered to pay $1,445 in fines and surcharges and to participate in an impaired driver’s course.
Her license was suspended.
