According to a statement, a 70-year-old Long Island man arrested on Wednesday for the hit-and-run crash that killed Nicki Minaj’s dad and he hid his car under a tarp after asking the dying victim if he was OK. He surrendered to police early Wednesday and was charged with leaving the scene of an accident and tampering with evidence.

Nassau County police said that Robert Maraj who is 64-year-old was walking in the street on Roslyn Road near his Mineola home when Polevich allegedly struck him near Raff Ave. about 6:15 p.m. Feb. 12.
