Woman Pleads Guilty to Felony Hit and Run

Nicoll Koval, 23, was accused of hitting a man with her vehicle on a freeway ramp in Rancho Penasquitos and leaving the scene of an accident. She has plead not guilty to felony hit-and-run causing death. 

The nursing student is thought to be responsible for killing Albert Holman on October 19 when he was walking along the edge of the freeway. The accident occurred right around 1 AM east of the Black Mountain road off ramp. 

Holman had to leave his car behind when he experienced two flat tires. He had been out celebrating his 34th birthday with his sister earlier that evening. 

When officers finally arrived on the scene they report that his body was completely mangled beyond recognition. They were tipped off to the person involved when they found a license-plate holder for a Nissan. Koval then contacted police the next day. 

Police visited her home and found a 2008 Nissan Sentra with a damaged windshield and significant damage to the front end. In addition, one of Holman's shoes was found in the undercarriage of her car.
