Lauren Pazienza, of Port Jefferson, New York, was charged with manslaughter in connection to the March 10 incident, police said.
A 26-year-old woman was arrested Tuesday in the fatal shoving attack of an 87-year-old woman earlier this month on a New York City street.
Lauren Pazienza, of Port Jefferson, New York, was charged with manslaughter in connection to the March 10 incident, police said.
Pazienza turned herself in to the 10th Precinct in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, ABC station WABC reported. She was seen being escorted out of the 10th Precinct with her hair covering her face and did not respond to any questions from reporters about the charge.
The victim was walking in Chelsea on the night of March 10 when the assailant approached her from behind and pushed her, "causing her to fall and hit her head," the New York City Police Department said following the incident. She was transported to an area hospital in critical condition. She had suffered a traumatic head injury, her family said.
