West Hempfield Township Police have filed a number of charges against a 19-year-old Columbia girl in connection with a fatal accident last month.
Cpl. Douglas Ober filed the following charges today with District Magistrate Robert A. Herman against Tiffany Shoff, 19, of the 700 block of Chickies Hill Road:
* Homicide by vehicle while driving under the influence.
* Driving under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance.
* Homicide by vehicle.
* Driving under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance - general impairment.
* Driving under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance - high rate of alcohol.
* Driving under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance as a minor.
* Minor prohibited from operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.
* Reckless driving.
* Driving vehicle at a safe speed.
* Limitations on driving on the left side of the roadway.
Cpl. Ober said Shoff was the driver of a 2004 Mitsubishi Eclipse, in which a passenger, Andrew Wagner, 20, of Columbia, was killed at 1:01 a.m., July 18.
Ober said because Shoff is still recovering from injuries as the result of the accident, a preliminary hearing and bail hearing will be set at a later date.
