Cabbie charged for fatal hit-and-run in Chelsea
The hit-and-run cabbie who fatally struck a 77-year-old woman in Chelsea on Thursday has been charged following her death, according to police.
Cops say 82-year-old hack Daniel Fusaro of Queens was travelling northbound on 8th Avenue in a 2014 yellow Nissan taxicab when he fatally slammed into Iris Crespo at West 22 Street as she traversed a crosswalk.
But rather than stop, Fusaro allegedly kept going — and then plowed into parked vehicle, officials said.

Fusaro was charged with leaving the scene of an accident, failure to yield to a pedestrian, failure to obey a traffic signal and failure to exercise due care, according to cops.
