Gloria Sanchez, 32, of Waterbury, was charged Thursday with evading responsibility in a death, criminal misrepresentation, and failure to renew registration, authorities said. 

Investigators said Sanchez crashed into 37-year-old Luis Caceras, of Waterbury, around 6 a.m. at the Cooke Street and Grove Street intersection and then drove away. 

After an investigation, police arrested Sanchez earlier this week. 

A judge ordered her held on a $150,000 bond, authorities said.
