Woman Disappeared After Questioning By Police

State police detectives are searching for a woman charged with killing a 61-year-old Revere man in a daylight hit-and-run on New Year’s Eve, the Suffolk County district attorney said Saturday.

• Milena Giraldo, 27, of Winthrop was indicted by a grand jury on charges of motor vehicle homicide in the Dec. 31, 2006, death of George Azarian.
  District Attorney Daniel Conley said the woman fled after being questioned by detectives during their investigation.
  
  Azarian was crossing Ocean Avenue when Giraldo – behind the wheel of a silver 2000 Dodge Intrepid registered to a friend’s mother – struck him and continued without stopping, Conley said.
  A surveillance camera operated by the city of Revere captured the incident on tape. Enhancement of the video helped investigators establish the make, model, and color of the car, but the license plate number remained too difficult to read.
  Conley said investigators then started searching for every 1998-2004 silver Dodge Intrepid registered in Chelsea, Revere, and Winthrop.
  “Where high technology failed, old-fashioned detective work carried the day,” Conley said. “For weeks on end, state police detectives canvassed three cities and towns to find this vehicle and its driver.”
  Detectives eventually found the car in an East Boston garage and were told that the car had been dropped off in February by two women for repairs to the front windshield, right headlight, and hood.
  State police seized the damaged parts and determined that they were consistent with an impact such as the one captured on the security tape, Conley said. Giraldo was present, Conley said, when police went to the Winthrop home where the car was registered. After that visit, she never returned.
  Giraldo is described as a 5 foot 3 inch tall Latina with brown eyes and blonde hair. Her last known home was an apartment on Veterans Road in Winthrop.
