Nashville Nurse Surrenders in Vehicular Homicide Case

Nashville nurse Julia Naldjian, 24, posted a $55,000 bond and has been released from jail after surrendering Thursday night on arrest warrants charging her with vehicular homicide, leaving the scene of a crash involving death, failure to render aid, and failure to report a crash.

Naldjian is the alleged hit & run driver of an Alfa Romeo sedan that struck Amelia Lamping, 61, of Lowellville, Ohio, as she was in a crosswalk on Charlotte Pike at 22nd Avenue North last October 27th. The damaged Alfa Romeo was found the following day parked near the intersection of 2nd Avenue North & Van Buren Street.

Alcohol may have been a factor in this case. Investigation by Fatal Crash Investigator Christopher Valdez revealed information that Naldjian had been drinking at a Demonbreun Street bar prior to the collision.
