Arrest Made In Napa Hit-and-Run That Left Man With Serious Injuries

NAPA COUNTY, CA – Police arrested a suspect Sunday in Santa Rosa for the Thursday night Napa hit-and-run collision that left a victim with major injuries.

Napa Police Department officers, with assistance from the Santa Rosa police, arrested Laura Ha, also known as Hang Ha, who was observed in the area. She was transported to Napa and booked at the jail, officials said.

Police said the male victim who was found unresponsive in the roadway after the collision is being treated in the hospital for spinal, pelvis and neck fractures, according to police.

Police initially received a call at around 9:22 p.m. Thursday reporting a hit-and-run on Redwood Road west of Solano Avenue. According to police, witnesses told officers a cream or white Cadillac SUV hit a pedestrian in the roadway, and the female driver stopped, got out, then fled.

Information from witnesses, video surveillance from surrounding businesses and tips from the community led police to identify the suspect, Ha, 47, of Napa, according to police. The vehicle in the collision was identified as a 2005 Cadillac Escalade.

On Saturday evening, officers served a search warrant at a residence police said is associated with Ha in the 600 block of Seymour Street in Napa. The residence was unoccupied, police said. A 2005 Escalade
was at the residence, according to police.

The vehicle had front-end damage and other physical evidence indicating it was involved in a collision, according to police.

"Thank you to everyone who shared the post and (for) providing leads," the Napa PD said. "This arrest would have not happened without all of your help."
