'BRIDGEPORT -- A city woman is accused of killing a former lover with her car.

Cherelle Baldwin, 21, of Ash Street in Bridgeport, was arrested Monday and charged with the murder of Jeffrey Brown, 24, and is being held on a $1 million bond.

In the early morning hours of May 18, Baldwin plowed into Brown with a red Pontiac G6, crushing him to death against a garage's cinder-block wall, police said. Brown died of blunt force trauma injuries.

"There was a significant impact when he was struck," said William Kaempffer, spokesman for the Bridgeport Police Department. "The vehicle pushed in the cinder-block wall more than 10 inches."'
